Update #11 · Aug 16, 2011 · comment

"A lot of the things that until now seemed unthinkable are starting to be thinkable." 

Nick Johnson 

WOW! 

We did it! We made out goal and smashed through it!

Yes, now we are able to even do more with this documentary and it's all because of ALL of your generous support of this project! This is really a team effort and YOU are part of the team.

My head is now buzzing with ideas and I am busy preparing for this incredible journey that Nic, Billy and I are about to embark on!

As I've said before it's going to be a WILD ride!

In the next day or two you should be receiving a "survey" e-mail to get any information I need to send you your backers awards. "Postcards from the road" will be coming to you from "the road!" 

Thanks again for all of your support, we couldn't have done this without YOU! (and you know who you are!)

Onwards and Upwards,

Sayonara for now,

Steve Marshall
