Sergei was thrown off the car here that kidnapper's. There is the statue of Queen Anne. The Favourite is my favorite film!

Sergei ran about 25Km to the London city airport from here. If I did it, I would die... How fast Sergei run?

The Mount Washington Tour Guide

For Chapter 9 Jack wanted to give us a tour through his neighborhood. I thought, what a nice idea. Night time walk - no research required.

But where in Mount Washington does he live? I needed a parking lot and an elevator and a view.

But definitely not the front-facing hillside off Grandview Avenue. So, Maple Terrace 206 it was. Very Jack.

Now, the tour. I wanted roughly a two-hour tour and a stop for hot soup along the way.

Then Jack gave me a hiking trip in the middle of Pittsburgh and raced me up the Halpin Street Steps. I got hungry. So, food it was. And 'Bigham Tavern' jumped me with perfect opening hours (until 2 am) and their Black and Gold 'Rogie Bowl.

Now, in the next chapter we have to get back home. And since Jack is Jack - we're taking the long way round. Of course not because of the view...

I hope you enjoy my two-chapter Mount Washington travel guide. 😄

However, I walked by a set of phone display holders for cars while stopping for groceries, thought about getting one, then opted to not. Later in the car I was like "Did you want me to get one?" My head did a big nod as an answer. "Well why? I don't think I'm going anywhere that needs that many directions?" (I'm staying on a fairly remote campsite)

Lucifer smiled enigmatically. "I have some places I will be taking you."

"Okay well find me another one I'll get it. Why didn't you say something at the time!" (this is why Belial tells me I have shit foreplay, I know I know)

Tbh I do not camp. I opted for glamping and the arrangement is slightly more rustic than I'd expected (very nice and accommodating hosts tho!). I am completely out of my element and very at Lucifer's mercy here.

Here's where I'm staying!

The Shawshank Redemption (1994, Frank Darabont)

⚠️ filming in progress ⚠️

Probably the most profound and unifying minute of my life, atop Lakepoint Tower in Chicago on our scout in the fall of 2019, when for the first time in my life I saw as a showrunner how you could do anything.

What’s funny is almost nothing I say about how we’ll use this roof ends up being true in the story; in fact, we don’t even go to the roof, and for the sequence in the end we used the neighbors’ apartment. But the concept we needed was that Jeevan would get to a place where he could see in a different direction, not the lake. The idea is it would be this ice prison and impassable.

Then we really got up there, and it was this incredibly beautiful fall day, and I went over by Hiro and saw Chicago in the sun and it was one of the most beautiful things I’d ever seen. AND terrifying, given the height. And there he was with his camera, loving it.
