My Second Post Makes It Up Onto The Website

My final project for my Integrated Media Degree Certificate, rolls along...week 1, post 2.

This post bothered me, because I was unsure about the rights to the photo. So after getting very little sleep on Tuesday night, I emailed Huell Howser's assistant, to make sure the photo I had, would not get the company sued by the estate of the late Huell Howser.

Within the hour, I had my permission and was feeling better about the post...for about a minute or so.

Then I worried that some of the facts were wrong and so I asked for Luis Fuerte's phone number and gave him a call.

This was probably the best part of my day, getting to talk to Luis is a pleasure and we talked for upwards of a half hour. Catching up with each other and getting the information I needed, for the post.

The one cool thing I learned from him, is that he is writing a book about all his experiences. Count me in, when it comes up for publication.

So here is the link to the final post that went up on KCET's website yesterday, with the corrections that Luis gave me.

Huell, Luis and California's Gold.
