It started out insane, like three hour motoring up lake Powell to THE canyon the Director wanted everyday for a month. They kicked around houseboats, and living on the Lake for a month. Stupid producers thought if a houseboat could sleep 12 they could do that, they didn't realize that was two per bed, not gonna happen in a work/ Union environment. Also food trash, sanitary waste for a month? Hello!

We ended up bringing in high speed boats from the Grand Canyon. They were in the Ape arena and wanted to bulldoze about 10 acres of scrub. The BLM said no and when pressed the BLM said the "scrub" was about 500 years old and it wasn't going to happen.

I'm in Vancouver,BC this week for a couple of TV Pilots with my iPad, I'll post some behind-the-Scenes pics when I get back from my laptop.
