Filming begins with Judge Paul Teranes
We began filming the life story of retired Wayne County Circuit Judge Paul Teranes. While his career as a blind judge is amazing, his marriage of 43 years to his wife, Barbara, is equally amazing. For 42 of those years, they have been riding a tandem bike. On any given week, they log on an average 60 miles together.
Paul is quick to say that Barbara is the captain, but Barb, also in a humorous way, lets me know that he has no problem trying to steer from the back of the bike. Sometimes, he has an uncanny ability to sense where he is at all the time.
Paul also is a good dog guide user and has been a board member of Leader Dogs for the Blind for many years.
