A good chunk of this morning was consumed with the taking of the cast photos. I am officially the second tallest person in the cast. The tallest is a guy named Wouter (Vouter for you non Germans) and he is one of the education coordinators and consequently the staff member helping with my particular CI project tomorrow (community impact). Tomorrow I am spending the day working at the food bank (http://www.careandshare.org/) <-- I’m pretty sure that is the right link. This is our fist of many CI days. We will usually devote 2 or 3 days specifically to working on CI projects per city.
This morning we had a session with John Butler, the founder of Rocky Mountain Relief, an organization designed to help the victims of hurricane Katrina. It was really inspiring how one person with a single idea and a little motivation could put all of this together. I would encourage you to read more about his project at (http://www.rockymountainrelief.org/about.htm). Lunch was Turkey salad subs. One thing that I have found to be rather odd here is that they tend to throw apples into everything. There was apple in the turkey salad sandwich which caught me completely off guard. It adds a certain sweet flavor to places you wouldn’t normally expect it.
The afternoon was spent for the most part doing some of the finer blocking of the show. We did two complete run-throughs and fixed a lot of things. One the ride home, Kory the cast manager showed off his new in car GPS system that speaks the directions to you as you are driving and shows you a 3d map of where you are. We tried unsuccessfully to come up with a female name for the device. My vote went for Sacajaweya because the brand name was “Tom-Tom” (I guess because it kind of looked like a drum and you tapped the screen of the device), and of course she was the native tracker on the Lewis and Clark expedition. Anyhow, Supper was slow cooked roast beef and with that I had the leftover baked beans from yesterday; ah a taste of home.
After supper I took a little walk around Arvada. I went to the Conoco gas station, the Walgreens convenience store, and the Starbucks. I bought a package of Junior Mints because I’d never had them before and I remembered them from an episode of Seinfeld. As it turns out Peppe is a big fan of Seinfeld and has a big poster of George on his wall. Well I’m going to need some sleep for yet another big day tomorrow. Its all Good™
