Happy Hulaween

My friend Charlie Smith invited me to join him and his crew to set up his magical and amazing fire sculptures at a fun festival down in Florida near the Suwannee River called Hulaween. 
​
It was hard work to be sure. I mean, they are these massive sculptures made of steel that have to be broken down so that they can be transported and then you load the pieces into a truck which is it's own challenge, one quite familiar to me given my career as a set dresser. Then of course you drive on down, set them up and then the rest of the crew sets up the pyrotechnics which is spectacular and the skill-set required is quite impressive. 

I really had the time of my life. 

I wish I had the time to elaborate, but I have to pack and make plans for a trip to Los Angeles. But first to unpack from a wonderful weekend at Tybee Island. As well as getting all sorts of other things sorted.

My blogging has been put on the back-burner to say the least. 

A shout out to the crew, Jeremy Barrett, Scott Dupree, Derek Dondeville, Thomas Boston, Aldö Nøva Caine, Joe Moriarty, Claire Ruf and of course Charlie Smith
