GH/PC Fan Weekend Event Recaps and Pictures:

I've been fortunate enough to attend several GH fan events. The following pages detail some of the adventures my friends and I have had at these events. 

2006 Recaps- page 1, page 2, page 3 [Scrubs!] and page 4

Please don't take my pics, as I made them specifically for my site.  If you'd like to borrow any of them, please ask first.  Click on the image to view a larger version.

The luncheon was the best organized it's ever been.  No standing outside in the sun for hours waiting to get in.  The food was much better than usual.  The heat only got worse as the day went on but at least I finally got to sit on the right side of the room again after years of being on the left. Which is important only for the fact that the actors come in from that side.  The fan club also posted a seating chart of where the actors would be, so I knew exactly where Tristan, Finola, Kimberly and Jason were scheduled. Which was near my table, wahoo. And thanks to the wonderful FinFans that attended, I got a heads up that Finola was running late but would be there.  

John Ingle, who has to be one of the sweetest man on this earth, got a huge standing ovation as he came in and served as emcee to introduce the actors.  Was surprised to see Laura Wright since I'd been told she wasn't coming because she was on vacation.  And she was very popular, which again suprised me since Carly seems to get more negative response online than positive.

Tristan called in to say he was on his way and got there after all the actors had made the stage.  I've never really ran track in my life but as soon as he was seated I FLEW over the surrounding chairs and tables to get into his line.  And what a line - it trailed all the way down the hallway.  Luckily I was at the front end of it.  He's so cute in person and got a kick out of the picture I'd brought him to sign.  In fact, he remembered exactly when it was taken, which was during the Demi Moore storyline.  Kimberly is even more petite and beautiful in person than I remember from the last time I met her.  Jason is drop dead gorgeous in person... and very tall.  The security person couldn't figure out how to work my camera so I got to pose with Jason three times [with our arms around one another] before she got the camera to work.  He was very sweet about it.  Finola just glowed and was even more beautiful than the day before.  She cracked up at the picture I presented to her to sign - one of Duke, Anna and Robert - and joked about how awfully big her hair was in the 80s. Because I got in line for the biggies this year, I actually meet less GHers than in the past.  But that's okay... I got to meet Tristan and Finola [again].  It was totally worth missing most of the cast.

I think Sonya [Epiphany] got the second loudest cheer from the crowd, which was great.  She seemed so happy to be there and meeting with the fans.  A very nice lady.  Ted King was really popular and his line was too long, so skipped it.  Julie Berman is adorable, she's so perfectly cast as Luke and Laura's daughter.
