Sequel: “Raising The Roof”

The roof is up. It took Ben two days to get this farm, and he will close up the two sides so the animals are protected from the weather, and install clear plastic on the South side so they will have sun and light in the winter. He is an amazing worker, and we are grateful to him. Without Ben, we would simply not be able to move in next month.

Yesterday, I shot a sequel to the movie “New Bedlam Farm.”  This one is a bit more personal. It is about a hard working carpenter, Ben Osterhaudt, and a blind pony trying to make sense of his changing world, and of the friendship between the pony and a border collie, and about the love between the pony and a loving human being, all, hopefully, captured on film. I am liking making movies. A new dimension in my life. Come and see.
