Movie Premiere

On Saturday night we went into the city for the premiere of our friend's documentary Hitchhiking to the Edge of Sanity at the Greenhouse Loft. It's the story of two young men in 1971 who decide that it would be a great adventure to hitchhike across the Sahara Desert.



That's Dave and I with our respective spouses in Row 1 (the gals ware short and didn't want to have to see over a tall person). Eagle eyes may also see Charlie Meyerson in Row 2. It was a pleasant surprise to see him there.

In row 3, my college buddies Mike Medina with his wife Lynee Alves, and Eckhartz Press author Brent Petersen and his girlfriend Karen. Brent's brother Scott was the filmmaker who made this gem.

LATE UPDATE: Brent has written a blog post about his weekend in Chicago, which included a visit to Eataly for a Truffle tasting. Brent is the author of the Eckhartz Press book "Truffle Hunt"
