Friday was a wonderful day in my life! My wife and I celebrated five years of marriage! WOO!! I am a truly blessed man.
This weekend was also the 5th reunion year for my wife and her graduating class at Emory & Henry College. So, we decided to travel there this weekend. Heading up that way, we decided that we would stop into Backbone Rock in Damascus (where we had our wedding reception) as a way to stroll down memory lane. Well, we travelled through Shady Valley and up through the beautiful mountain roads...and all of a sudden ***FLASH*** Police Lights were a head of us!
There were also a couple of cars right in front of us, so we figured that someone had just been involved in an accident. We even saw an ambulance. But a couple minutes later, we were waved through...as we passed the Sheriff's deputy...we kept looking around to see what was going on. I said, "Wouldn't it be funny if they were filming a movie?"
There were a lot of vans, cars and things in the lot where we would normally park, so we had to drive down the road a second to find a spot. As we pulled in, we saw a truck with the words, "Lightning Productions" on the side. Hmm....we hopped out and made our way back to the Rock. As we were walking we asked, the other Sheriff's deputy what was happening. Lo and behold, they WERE filming a movie in the park!!!!!! LOL!!!
The fun part was that we were able to go running around the Rock and watch them film without getting in their way. So, we relived some memories while making a new one. I decided to not bring the digital camera this weekend, so we have to wait on the pictures. But once they are ready, I will digitize and place them on here for you to see.
The name of the film will be "Grizzly Park" and it WON'T be for your kids to see. However, if you are one to enjoy scary movies...sounds like this one will be for you. And it can't be that small of a film...Glenn Morshower (From the show "24"-- Aaron Pierce) is going to be in it.
So, when you see the previews, take a look around the scenery...you'll see that it is actually the Appalachians! That's neat. And we were there!!!! I think that's neat, too.
The rest of our weekend was fantastic! We saw all sorts of friends, had a blast, and Emory won! Good times.
Hope your weekend was just as fun!
