Shooting Rains
Sugarloaf, California. Most of this weekend was spent in a cute cabin in the Big Bear area - the location for the Rains of Astoria shoot. The shoot went well, the 
cast and crew were excellent and it was a beautiful setting for it all to go down. Here are a couple pics of the cast and crew.
Also, new IMDb "StarMeter" record this week!: 87,632.

The Backroads to Big Bear
Sugarloaf, California. On Thursday night, I left the shoot location of Crucifixions up in Calistoga and headed straight for Big Bear, for the Rains of Astoria shoot.
Having left so late, I had to break up the 8 hour drive with a hotel stay in Lost City. The next morning, I woke up and finished my drive, going to back way (around Los Angeles) up to Big Bear. After driving through the area with the largest wind energy operation in the world (see pic), the drive took me straight into the heart of the Mojave Desert. This was a very pleasant surprise!
I don't know exactly what it is, but the desert draws me in, captivates me. I had not been there since my father and I drove cross country on my way out to California last year. This is too long to be separated from such an amazing place. The desert can be harsh, desolate and seemingly uninhabitable yet at the same time can fill your heart with wonder, provide a sense of connectness and inspire a yearning for the unknown. At one point on my drive, the road curved up and over, unfolding the planet before me in a manner that I have only seen in landscapes
of the American West. Breathtaking does not adequetely describe such sights. These open spaces cause my spirit to soar and feel truly free.
From the desert, I climbed up the backside of the mountains to Big Bear, trading desert-scapes for evergreen covered peaks of 9000 ft+ and finally ending my journey in a picturesque cabin in the woods of Sugarloaf. It was an amazing end to the journey.
