OK, another year and another GFM Nature Photography Weekend has passed
into the history books. Words cannot describe how exhausted I am now.
I'm now at my friends' place in nearby Ashe county having a beer after a
sound afternoon nap.
I think this was the best, smoothest running GFM ever

Just got an email from Landis. They have had many cancellations and have
exhausted the waiting list.
Hello all,
This is a first since I've been at Grandfather...we've had so many
cancellations
that I have exhausted the Waiting List and we actually now have empty seats
available for NPW.
Saw this in Digest vol 61, issue 211 @ about 7:20pm.
The park is apparently closed for the day and no one answered the phone.
I sent an email that I'm interested and will try to call in the morning
to pay by credit card.
Who knows, maybe I'll make it after all ...

If you can't find tires for it at one of them, call 1-800-FOR-MERCEDES

Asheville or Hickory are the closest to GFM.

Just don't try to find a set of rear tires for it in rural North

They start talking about the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia, but the
entire Blue Ridge Parkway segment is in North Carolina. They don't get
the whole idea of the Blue Ridge Parkway ... it's a PARK-way.

John, best you don't watch any
Top Gear is not know for it's impartial and accurate views of America.
Besides, the road they are looking for it 129 at Deal's Gap:

They are often willing (for a price) to have the police shut down the
road for a short period. It would have made a funny bit on

I've ridden this road 3 times on a motorcycle. The first time (in 1991),
Mountain?? Sure as
heck looks like it. Nico, do you know if they filmed at GFM?
Specifically, the first three shots in this series:

on the Blue Ridge Parkway -
there's some scenes of them discussing their chosen cars for the trip -
is it the middle parking lot half-way up Grandfather Mountain?? Sure as
heck looks like it. Nico, do you know if they filmed at GFM?

It was that trip that opened my mind to the fact of how unhappy I was with
my home life and how much more there is in the world that both of us were
missing out on by being in such a situation. So as it turned out, GFM was
indeed a life
!
This time, I can give the lighting masterclass! Lol.

You know what I reckon? We should celebrate the 10th anniversary of GFM by
NOT going to GFM! I reckon you should all come to Australia and have a huge
PDML gathering right here! I'd be happy to organise the entire shindig!
Watch out DOWN UNDER!
We would be just getting over Oprah-mania
Last time was in 2004, wasn't it?
I almost went this year, but had to choose between GFM and the Chicago exhibit.
Would love to go again too, but can't commit to it yet.

Me too frank, unless I feed the kids on bread and water for the next six
Yep, yep, sure was Jos, just prior to my divorce! Lol.
Would love to see you guys again, wonder if the GFM organisers would like to
feature a presentation on photographing kids in nature by an Aussie
ring-in? lol...
