From an e-mail I received:

New this year, by popular demand, are our “weekenders” in New Mexico - 2 to 3 day trips to scenic NM destinations where you provide your own transportation and we meet on location. This is for the benefit of photographers who can’t take week-long vacations and/or do not have much time to practice and explore our Land of Enchantment. These short trips are opportunities to get glimpses of this very scenic state (the U.S. state with the most photographers per capita!) with the guidance of a local professional photographer, and have a taste of adventure as we go off the beaten path.

An article in The Weekend Pinnacle discussed California’s oldest lighthouse at Pt. Pinos.

The 150 year old building is near Pacific Grove. The lighthouse still has original light fixtures from 1853. The living quarters for the lighthouse keepers have been restored. A visit to the lighthouse is like a visit to the past.

Naturally, such a place sits on high, open ground overlooking the ocean. Makes for a great photo op, if you ask me!
