So.... I've had this crazy idea for a 'Summer Shindig' at our house in NW Denver, because I have an awesome14' diagonal movie screen in my backyard, on which we could have a slideshow of everyone's recent photography (and some from the archives), along with plenty of photographer beverages and of course a serious grilling session for those who feel the need to show off their mad skills.....both photographically and culinary.
Without further ado, I hereby invite all RMNP folks willing to make the trek to the northside to come enjoy each others' company, have a slideshow, listen to some great music, eat, drink, and hang out. The date I have set is Saturday, July 24, starting around 6:30 pm, so mark your calendars.
If you think you'd like to come, please RSVP via email (email me through NPN), and defintely bring your images on a flash drive or CD. Optimal image size is 1920px by 1080px tall (HD format). I will send over my address, etc. in my reply.
Jody I had thought about this but this is one of the only free weekends that I have. Hopefully some of you won't be chasing the flora this weekend. I can't be wishy-washy about the date, I'm just setting it and hopefully some folks will show. You don't know until you try, right??? :)

I think it's a good idea to set a firm date, but it is a shame it's right on the probable peak weekend for flowers. But what a GREAT idea! I try to avoid traveling during the week, so I'll see if I can arrange to come up, and will let you know.
Sounds like a great idea.. unfortunately I too will be out shooting wildflowers that weekend.

Thanks for the invitation Chris. It's great of you to organize this for everyone on the forum. I'm not sure yet if I'll be in town then but I'll let you know.

Thank you RMNP!
You know I'll be there (unless I'm out shooting wildflowers, of course). In the meantime, we'll continue Saturday afternoon cocktails on the verandah.
Can anyone tell I need motivation to GET OUT and SHOOT? Like Charles Barkey says, 'it's Terrible'....
The other date that will work for me is July 10th, I know, right around the corner, but hey, should get us all stoked for wildflowers, right?
CAZ as you know I don't f around!
Thanks for the update. Too bad it couldn't work out. Would have been fun.
