Bill Geist/CBS Sunday Morning interviews Macy at Home

Bill Geist, Amy Rosner and a local affiliate CBS film/sound crew dropped in at the homestead Friday noon as planned. Don Claire, President of the Rabbit Hash Historical Society and resident historian/celeb, helped navigate their fleet of three SUVs up the driveway and past their initial concerns (hint: dueling banjos playing in background, Burt Reynolds...ring a bell?). Ironically, this patch of gravel was part of the original Rabbit Hash Road the county abandoned in the late 50's. It looks (and feels) the same as it did 75 or more years ago.

This was friendly group... after the introductions Amy did a quick survey inside and out to identify the best filming location. Ultimately they settled on the front porch overlooking the trees and yard as it offered good light and setting. We brought Macy out (on leash) to meet everyone. She was a bit timid (normal for her) but warmed up with the help of some well placed doggy treats. Bill and I sat down on the bench and he asked several powder-puff questions to which I responded with a sheep-stare (normal for me). Funny... the questions were SO much easier to answer after they left! Hopefully they'll be able to find or edit two words that made sense :-/

The Questions I remember...
1) What triggered Macy's run for office?
2. Does she have any foreign affairs experience?
3. Is she dating anyone... plans?
4. Any similarities with Sarah Palin?
5. What's her platform?
6. You seem to be taking the election pretty serious...web site?
7. What type of electionware is available?

They took some additional footage of Macy playing down below before calling it a day. The whole thing was over in 45-60 minutes. They'll be back in Rabbit Hash again next Saturday (October 4) for the "Meet the Candidates" event. The segment is scheduled to air on CBS Sunday Morning on October 19 at 9:00 am EST (check local times just to be sure).
