My Town Turns Hollywood

Posted from Royal Oak, Michigan-

I live in the most unique small town in America.  Royal Oak, Michigan is a great little community and one of America's best-kept secrets until now. 

Hollywood has found us.  Lifetime was recently in town to make Prayers for Bobby.  The movie is based on a true story of a gay boy who commits suicide.  The boy's mother, played in the movie by Signourney Weaver, champions gay rights and awareness. 

I had a blast visiting the set and watching the director film (film?) the parade scene on Washington Street.

No, I didn't get to meet Ms. Weaver.  No, she didn't ask about me.
