DILO - Day In The Life Of Asheville

Flickr fanatics in Asheville, NC, will document a day in the life of our wonderful mountain town.

This event: Satuday, April 14, for DILO Ashvegas. Get out your cameras and go. Then upload your pictures to the group on Flickr. Asheville Midnight photo by Bill in Ashvegasa.

3 for the Natives & Visitors

* Everybody's talking 'bout it. DILO - A Day In The Life Of Ashvegas, aka Asheville. With photos.

from the flickr website:

Hey all. There are so many wonderful photogs out and about in Asheville that i thought it might be fun to see if we could get as many flickr maniacs together as possible and do one of those "Day in the Life of" projects.

We pick a day - 24 hours - and shoot it. Maybe we have a theme. "Interpret Ashvegas." Maybe not. We should try for spring or early summer.

Then we load all the photos to a flickr group. Maybe we print some of the ones we like the most and do a little show at one of the umpteen galleries around town.

What do you think? What are your ideas? Anybody interested?

If you'd like to participate, check it out. The plans are: Meet, greet, plan, shoot, drink...? as Edgy Mama put it. If you live someplace else, Flickr is a good place to learn more about Asheville. I visit it often.

* Another place you can visit online that the locals also enjoy is the newly updated Mountain Xpress, Asheville's best alternative weekly newspaper. It's all blogged out and interactive now.

* And the third link for you is the Asheville IWANNA. It's a Classified Newspaper for ASHEVILLE and WNC. The natives snap it up each week when they're looking for a good deal.

Pritchard Park

People watching April 25, 2006, at Pritchard Park in downtown Asheville. (I found this photo at Flickr.)Sometimes there are bands playing, street musicians, jugglers, and on Friday nights a drum circle until 11:00.

Mellow Mushroom

There is a popular restaurant in the middle of downtown Asheville, called the
Mellow Mushroom.

It's main attraction besides their delicious pizza is their sidewalk cafe. A prime spot for people watching and meeting friends for a leisurely lunch or a few tasty beers. Here is a picture of the restaurant. Longtime residents will know this as the old Stone Soup.

This wall surrounds the courtyard and was found at Zen's Flickr website, who's always got good local photos.
