A shot of me on the plane (Franks on a Plane? maybe someone should pitch that to a Hollywood agent). Then Stephanie and me on the plane (that'd be the sequel). And one of the food service during the flight. Food service consisting of a drink and and a few grams of peanuts (not even a bowl full of gruel).

A shot out the window of the plane at 36,000 feet en route to Minneapolis. And a shot of the "You Are Here" map at the Minneapolis airport.

He built a greenhouse only about a month ago. There are a lot of white Aspen trees around their property.

More woods around the house. A kind of entrance archway in front of their house. Their hosue is deceptively large. The part with the deck is old, the part behind it (with newer looking wood) was added in the last few years (with some parts still under construction on the inside). Quite a nice place.

Another shot of the archway, from the other side. A view of the backside of the house. It's built into a hill so from the front it looks like it's one story, while from the backit has a lot more. There's a loft on top, the main level below that, below that are bedroms, and a basement with top level windows at the ground floor. The kitchen is in the old section which is quite cute and nicely organized. Stephanie was making a snack in it.

The valley. Views in the distance. And smoke from a small fire is visible in the distance.
