La Rambla-ized Pike Street

My post over at CHS has really taken off!  Lots of comments, and other feedback via email and at my.greatcity.org, and they just posted it on the Seattle Great City Initiative homepage.  This was my first post as an "independent journalist" for CHS, so it was a good start!  You can expect me to be posting more frequently over there from now on.  Been really busy with work at Morgan Howard Productions and working on some videos for SeattleIAM, so I haven't had time to start a new CHS-V, but hopefully will do that soon.  In the meantime I'm just really excited to be officially writing and producing for CHS.  Story ideas anyone?

Hola From Espana

OK Well I guess I lied about the updates... I haven't been twittering or facebooking hardly at all, and now I'm updating my blog, oh well.

Cadaques, Catalunia, Spain Cadaques, Catalunia, Spain

We're back in Barcelona now after a short road trip up north to Figueres, Cadaques, Perpignan, Girona, and Tossa De Mar. The best city we've stopped at so far is definitely Cadaques (see pic). It was exactly the kind of small coastal town I was hoping we'd see. It seemed like it was pretty much the same as it would've been a couple hundred years ago, no modern hotels or anything. The next day we tried to go into France (Perpignan), but once we got there we realized that a) it didn't seem much different then Spain, and b) we don't speak French at all. We ate some crepes and quiche at a nice little bakery, where the rude cashier/ server lady made us realize how little French we actually knew, so we decided that was enough of a France experience for us and we went back into Spain. We ended up in Girona, where we drove around for at least 2 hours trying to find our hostel. Girona is a really old medieval city, with lots of really narrow and confusing streets, so by the time we had found our hostel I pulled an Austin Powers style U turn in a pedestrian filled walk-way that I'm still not sure if cars are supposed to be on, we drove through a medieval passageway that was probably a foot wider than our car, and I'm sure we irritated a lot of locals.  We made it eventually, but ended up in a really nice family-owned hotel that was built in the 14th century and was about 50 yards away from the Catedral de Girona, instead of the cheap hostel we were looking for, which turned out to be closed. That was the day before yesterday, and now we're back in Barcelona with 5 more days to go. We're having a great time, taking lots of pictures and video, but due to technical difficulties they probably wont be online until we get back home (that picture of Cadaques is one I found online). Adios!

Vamos a Espana!

Sorry for the lack of updates recently.  I've been pretty busy transcribing hours of footage for a video I'm editing for Morgan Howard Productions, and I shot the Streets For People Kick Off event last week for a video I'm working on for SeattleIAM.  But... I don't have to think about any of that for 9 days starting... NOW.  Because I leave first thing tomorrow morning for Spain!  Here's a street view of where we're staying (see the blue sign peeking through the branches on the right?).  I probably wont be posting from Spain, but I'm sure I'll be twittering and facebooking so check there if you must know what I'm up to. Adios!

Smells Like Money goes platinum

Smells Like Money DVD Cover Smells Like Money DVD Cover

When I was going to school at WWU and the NW Film School (yeah that's a picture of me on the homepage), I produced, shot and edited a documentary called "Smells Like Money: The Story of Bellingham's Georgia Pacific Plant." My goal at the time (2006) was to sell 100 copies of the DVDs.  I just got a check from Village Books, and during the holiday season they sold a whopping 4 copies, which puts me at 102 DVDs sold.  It took me three years, but I did it!
