There are many more, and I'll be scanning a whole bunch. It'll take me awhile to wade through them, but you won't be disappointed!
WOW!, now that is what I call a GREAT picture!
Where is that breeze when you need it? 
I remember wading through the albums in the parking lot at the 1st Gathering... that was the night of the "upside-down-and-backwards" showing, wasn't it? Anyway, the Willis's had quite a collection.. it was quite the dream come true! Looking forward to seeing more.

Well now. Let’s see. Where was I before I was so delightfully (and lengthily) interrupted? (Hey! That picture needed to be thoroughly studied and scrutinized!) Is it hot in here or is it just me?
Oh, yes. I wanted to take this opportunity to add some more thoughts on . . . Unc. . . uh , no. Not that. More thoughts on . . . . Dang. That is a darn distracting picture! Even better than I remember!!!
Now back to the task at hand, Karen. Concentrate. Hard.
Yes, yes! I remember now. I was trying to post a few more thoughts about. . . . that . . . that . . . thing we just did. You know. That Mohican thing. What’s it called? GATHERING. That’s it. The Gathering. I was trying to share some more thoughts about what it’s like to be. . . .
Uncas on top of Table Rock, huh? Breechclout lifting?! Now there’s an image worth pondering! Hmmmmm. Now wait a minute! How’s a person supposed to get ANYTHING done around this place?
Obviously, there’s only one thing to be done here. OK, two. But only one thing that I can do HERE on the Board. And that is to come clean about the picture.
Girls, I did it for YOU! Right there on the second floor of Louise’s Famous Rock House Restaurant. In front of everybody who made it there for lunch. But it was OK. We had the room to ourselves. Nobody there but us reserved little Mohicanite gatherers and the waitress (singular) who was way too busy trying to take orders and serve 30+ people to be paying much attention to the strange goings-on of this group.
Scotty Willis had brought his photo albums to the Skyland Arts Cinema Saturday night, and then graced us with his presence, the albums, 2 dynamite LOTM pictures he has hanging in his home, and stories and info galore on Sunday—a real highlight of the gathering for a first-timer like me, and a delightful person to share much of the day with.
I was innocently looking through the photos, and then I saw THEM. Yes, THEM (plural). A whole page of Uncas pictures that literally knocked me on the floor. After moaning, sighing, giggling, blushing and sharing my bounty with the Uncas lovers I knew to be present, I did it. I walked over to Rich, fell on my knees and begged. Yes, I BEGGED (for YOU) for at least one of these pictures to be scanned and put up on the website. Lucky for me Rich is a gentleman and a heck of a good sport. He could have asked for A LOT, and all he asked of me was “Oh, one more time.” And I obliged, “Please, please, please?” And voila—true to his word one of those pictures appears here for YOUR enjoyment. And lest you have missed it, all 3 appear in the Hairdressers Photo Gallery. Check it out!
Now one of the things I learned at this gathering was how beautifully Mohicanites look out for and take care of each other, and it is in THAT spirit that I demeaned and degraded myself for your viewing pleasure. Your joy is all the reward I need!
So, just one more peek. Whew. I think I have to go upstairs again now. Oh, Phiiiilll.
Quickly Racing,
Native Heart
