It was a week ago today that I arrived home from a week of shooting in Southern Utah. As wonderful as California is with its beaches, mountains and deserts, Utah has to be one of the most exciting places on earth. The air is clear and the vistas, breathtaking. I remember the first experience with the Grand Staircase part of Utah when I was much younger thinking this was the real West, the likes of which you saw in early Westerns. And for good reason as a lot of early Westerns were shot in Utah.
