Sundance and the after-Redford

Beautiful Sundance, Utah was the setting we chose to celebrate Mother's Day, this past Sunday. The Tree Room Restaurant, where we ate, had a copious collection of ancient Robert Redford pictures.

Later, I was thinking, that as star will turn 83 in August, he'll soon will have to think of doing something with that frozen-in-time mountain resort that is Sundance, and will he be able to extricate his film institute out of the tiny ski resort, or are the two irreversibly tied at the hip and destined to continue as a whole when the man who concocted their existence is no longer there to sheppard both?

Fair question, considering the fact that operating a low-altitude ski place like that one will increasingly become a challenge, and may be even more difficult to turn it into a viable business enterprise?

As the saying goes, “time will tell”, but this situation, when it develops will be an interesting one to watch...
