Isn't the griffith park, fernando was talking about griffith park observatory or am I mistaken? and maybe we should have a door prize for the member who travels the farthest.

Griffith Park is the big park that it sits on. Griffith Park's observatory is the building within the park. Unless it has another name I'm not aware of, that's what I've always referred to it as.

You guys were right and I had the wrong park. Should be accurate now.

Neal and Missy are planning local get-togethers in AZ and IL, respectively. Check their threads for details!

Arizona Get Together
Mid-West (IL) Get Together

Griffith Park is right behind the LA Zoo! Techincally, the zoo is part of Griffith Park....but we're talking thousands of acres that encompass the park...it pretty much starts where the Santa Monica Mountains end to the east.

He should. There are quite a few Hawaii forum members. I'd love to see pictures of that! There was a program on cable last night about the flora and fauna of Hawaii. Absolutely beautiful!!
