Woke up at 2:30 and decided to hit the road for home. Staying in Albuquerque in a Ho Jo (Howard Johnson's). It's about 550 miles to Cave Creek. Had fun here. We did quite well at the festival, selling almost $2,000 in books and DVDs and some $9,000 in paintings and giclees. Met some very nice people. The SASS folks are extraordinarily respectful and appreciative. I would be going out back to the Port-O-John and someone would walk right up to me and say, "I really want to thank you for the stages [the prerecorded scenarios I did for the shoot] and for coming out here. Hope you're having a great time."

And I would say, "Yes, I am. Could you shut the door on your way out?"
