DECEMBER BLOG

And so closes another year. the bellflower streams like an oasis across the media void. Almost in grasp. Clear to the eye but not really there. an illusion. It falls from a clear happening into haze. Can we see her again? Must keep moving. the heat; im so tired; I'll just rest here. just close my eyes for a second. I wont fall asleep. I wont lose site of her. She is just there. BREATH!! Warm air fills my weary lungs. For a second I forget where I am; the air charges my thoughs. I look around. I remember, I shudder, as I relaise I nearly fell. I look back and there is my Fellow browncoats. My crew. they are weary but are resolute. with a look to all, we turn and push forward. into the heat, the haze. There she is i wisper.

SO many stories we have of the small crew of the bellflower. the day to day struggle with living in the verse. having little but each other. And the ship. The Bellflower. Sandfly class small transport. Built Tough. fast drop and take off. Fast. fitted with Firefly class capessen 38 Atmo engine assembly. Fast in atmo. Hard to lock onto. can get in quick. Re-inforced Titanium carbon compostite frame and hull lining.

Built for one crew.

One person said once. The first time I saw her I thought, what an ugly ship. You know, nothing to look at. dumpy, not flash. But you know, I looked some more. and I looked at other ships. but for some reason I just went back to her. I bought that ship and relaised that she had only a bunk for one. Well that wasnt good enough, IM bringin my family along. so out came some storage and in went a kitchen. I took the shuttle on the roof, gave it a coat of paint and it was a room for the my young girls. Its been 8 years since I came upon that ship. it part of the family. couldnt imagine life without her. (benjamin Campbell)


I have nothing but the greatest thanks for the small crew of the bellflower and the fact that even when things dont go smoothly, they still pul together to get the film done. We are still here, some of the visual effects are great. wonderful. its taking time. more than I thought it would. but we are getting there. maybe if the team will let me, we will put out a new trailer to show you loyal fans, the verse that is coming.

SO please be safe. Be happy and, well pop in from time to time and check up on us.
