In the Background




When we had our big production meeting back in January, I remember talking about the people it would take to create this film and Bob making the comment, "There will be as many people behind the camera as in front of it."

Well....not quite. But we do have a good crew to bring In Pursuit of a Dream to life....We're still putting it together but already on board are the folks I mentioned earlier: Bob, Quackgrass, Jacqueline, Lincoln, Patrick, Susan, Lynn. Plus Jeff Nicholson and Matt James as primary production assistants (PAs)...we have Connor Novotny to assist as a PA and will be getting one more person lined up for that role, too.

In the support camp in Wyoming we'll have Bob Lovato and Floyd Barela with the production trailer/vehicle shuttle crew; Rod Henderson and Doris Leigh, cooking for the crew; Ben Kern and Carl Jones, water and other support for the crew...and cast.
Quackgrass and I have traveled many a mile on the trail with Rod, Doris, Ben and Carl....Ben's been doing wagon trains since the 1950s and at age 82 is still going strong, making plans for a run with the Wyoming Stagecoach later this year.


Here's another picture of the trail veteran. The top one shows him with mules Jim and Jake.
