Pretty sure me and my group used to hang out in that same spot from time to time. It's so long ago I don't remember how we'd get down there though. I used to also rent a carriage house on the small "island" just before the Huegenot bridge on the north side of the James, both houses were owned by the Court family at the time. I had a lot of fun times on the James over the years. |

Three Bridges at Dusk by FredMan, on Flickr
ETA, I gotta say, do they really need all those bridges? Union jobs? Political cronyism? And don’t even get me started on the tunnels. But they do make for good photography. |

Then on the way out, you had to square off against a grizzly who smelled the last morsel of hard tack in your bag, but you fought him off, bare handed, and finally reached the trailhead, where you were offered a ride by Michelle Jenneke, who had just completed her Alaskan adventure. Because that’s the kind of story I’D tell. |

Went down to Blackwater Falls State Park in Davis, WV for the Moonlight on the Falls Quarter Marathon and some camping. Took the camera bag with me, but, like an idiot, forgot the 24-120 f4. These pictures are with the 50 1.8. After I came home, immediately retooled the bag to have the 50 1.8, 70-200 2.8 and the 24-120 f4 in the bag with the D750.
