Lost Sea Expedition wins Winnie Award at EQUUS Film Festival
Man walks across America with mule. Man makes movie. Movie goes to New York City and….wins shiny gold trophy.
Yeeehaawww!
Okay. Sorry. I got a little emotional there.
It’s just that I’m excited that the “Lost Sea Expedition”, the account of my mule voyage across America, just won a Winnie award at the EQUUS Film Festival in New York City. It won for best Full Length Equestrian Film Travel Documentary.

Sought: Lodging for 3 Mules

Ride Out the Front Gate
The first time I ran away, I was naked except for a pair of rubber boots. I was 4 years old. It was a short run-away, to my buddy’s house. I’ve been rambling ever since, only slightly better dressed.

A letter from the Lost Sea Expedition Wagon
