A Map for Saturday TV premiere


A week ago, as I wandered around the desert, some friends got together to watch the U.S. premiere of ‘A Map or Saturday’ and sent along some pics…

Mom and dad watched at my cousin Sheri’s house with some extended family



Friends in New York (who you may recognize from my welcome home party) got together at my friend Katie’s apartment.




And in Vancouver (a few days before) Canadian Kate got a group together as well.


The sign behind Kate was better than the T.V. listing on a lot of U.S. cable systems which called the show “A Map for Sunday” Ouch.
