Thanks for putting on such a great event Bill. Had a wonderful time... and shot a fair number of sheets.

Just got home from Traverse City yesterday and wanted to add to the chorus of thanks to Bill for hosting yet another fun Photostock up in Harbor Springs. Making new friends and meeting up with (now) "Legacy" P-Stockers as I heard someone call us, has become one of the highlights of my year.

Hello Everyone!!!!

I am finally back on a consistent internet connection after our time at Photostock and have been going through everyone's work that has been posted so far. It is reminding me just what a great time I had this year with all of you!! I wanted to formally thank each and every one of you for coming on up... (down and over in some of your cases) and joining in the festivities. For myself, I can't say I've ever enjoyed the event this much!! Not only did I get a little(lot) loopy, I got some great work too. It was a lot of fun doing the portraits I did as well as the work with Silke and Dan. (Thank you both!!!!)

And I even got a souvenir afterward! After being introduced to the "Banjitar" by Lil' Stevie Zimmerman, I drove my way down to Elderly Instruments in Lansing and bought one for myself! What a blast.... I'm ready for the next Photostock and more of Steve's side splitting improvisations.

I also very much appreciate all the nods from you on the event. But really... all I do is set the date and make the arrangements with the hotel. it is all of YOU that make the event what it is and I very much hope you will all continue coming for years to come.

And keep posting your shots to the Flickr page. They're great!!!!

Damn.... You're quick. I only had that up there a couple seconds!

A definite maybe on this. I thought it best to think it through further as far as dates, but the ruins of the Keweenaw Peninsula have been calling me back lately and I thought it could be a good group shoot and party. Still a possibility....

Can you tell I miss everyone already?

There is a ton of stuff in Calumet City..Evan

Well I'm in....if there is an October possibility... Keep us posted!! The Photostock this past June was the highlight of my year so far!! I miss people too!
