: Well, I haven't finished reading everything about the Gathering but it sounds as if you all had a wonderful time. Did Wes go with you guys to some of the filming locations? Was he glad to revisit some of the beautiful places? Did anyone convince him to wear a loin cloth? If not, then why not? What are we paying you people for? I can only sigh and hope to be there next year. If my job interferes with next year, I have promised myself that I get to but a rifle from Billy Gnome!

Hi, Beth!
It was absolutely great, but to answer a few of your questions, 1) No, it turned out that Wes did not go to any filming locations. He came to the theater in Hendersonville & gave a talk before the movie, watched the film with us, and answered questions after the movie. He was very funny & entertaining.
2) No longer applies, since he didn't go (with us, anyway) to any of the locations.
3) If you are paying us to get studly actors into loincloths, you should request a refund immediately! Wes wore tropical print shirts & slacks each night...but they looked very nice & casual on him. He seemed quite relaxed in them. And when you consider what might have happened with Ros & Stephanie had he appeared in his full Magua ensemble, the Hawaiian shirts were probably a good idea on his part! ;o)
See you there next year!
