It's 8 a.m. California time and William Shatner is on the phone from, well, it's probably best if Shatner tells it himself.
"I'm in Los Angeles in a part of my house that overlooks the San Fernando Valley. My back is to the sunrise, I'm looking toward the mountains, and it's a beautiful, clear morning in L.A.," says the legendary actor, during a call last week. "On the rim of the mountains that make the valley, toward the desert, it's all covered in white. So there's snow surrounding the mountains in Los Angeles, and it's a beautiful, unusual sight."
Shatner, who turns 92 later this month, is at a stage in his life where he's taking it all in, even if it's just the simple splendor of his morning view.
