It's really not as big as it looks. :7

This last Friday, Manny Edwards and his clan were so kind as to visit us for a few days, helping us get our lighting/set/SOP's in order for the Movie Show.  

At the Film Academy one evening

Alas, I am not my good friend Wesley Morton (our autodidactic musical extraordinaire), but we were there, so was the piano, and I was bored. What can I say? LOL...

2nd annual San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival

On Saturday, October 22nd, the Smith clan, plus Arthur and Ivis Lummus, left Georgia for the 2nd annual San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival. We had a lovely trip, rendezvouing with the Mortons at my Mother's cousin's house in Lake Charles, LA. While we were in San Antonio, we were hosted by the gracious and hospitable Turack family, 30 minutes south of town. The Mortons stayed in a guest house behind the Turack's church, about 4 minutes down the road. Also attending the festival were the Zwoneitzers, Vawsers, Campanas, and a great many other old friends.

One of the days Dad and I were attending the Film Academy, the girls visited the Alamo with the Mortons and Turacks. They also ran into the Vawsers while they were there.

The San Antonio River

On Thursday, the Turacks took us to some property on the San Antonio river back behind their church. Nice place.

Arrangements were made for the Morton clan to join us.

Lonestar Grill

One night we ate dinner at the Lonestar Grill, just down the riverwalk. Accompanying our crew were the Zwoneitzers, Wagners, and the Vawsers. Matt and Andrew Vawser were so kind as to bless us with their banjo and mandolin.
