The Parkways Projects 1934≈2025 @parkwaysprojects.bsky.social · Jan 11

"In the gloaming, a trail of Mists" a digital photo from The Parkways Projects. I've been going round & round—how to start this in here...🦋 For it's a multi-tiered sequence of art. Since it began really in 1964, as a 9 year old with a Kodak Instamatic—this shot from 2021, Mount Mitchell trailhead 🦉

A cold and thoroughly rain-soaked trailhead leading down to the Appalachian Trail from Mount Michell State Park in North Carolina. A stand of high-country alpine black spruce.

From the Parkways project, a reclamation of sorts to come. I walked down it for a ways, became very cognizant of Time winnowing away, took a number of other images, and then decided to push on up the Parkway, as it had become very real to me that the remaining 12 days were going to be very fleet.

By this time, I'd found passages which had been turned, the corners folded back so many times that the bookmarks crumbled and fell on the touch.

I was waylaid on the way back up the trail though, and burned the last remaining daylight because, in walking back one sees things that weren't there from the first perspective, or angle of view, depending on the way you see things. By the end of that relatively short and very wet hike, I offloaded over 400 images into a folder set aside for this one little episode that night, once back at my fog-enshrouded campground.

Does that make it a chapter, I wonder?

Digital photography will be the largest component of what I hope will be a photo-essay within a few years. I'll be launching a site soon which will include much older photos from 1964 through 1972. They are family shots made over five camping vacations through the headiest part of the 1960's. There's a patina of age, a soft depth to them. Then the archival National Park Service images. A sequence on the small bridges & structures now long gone. A series on the people. Two abstract sequences of works, both digital composite builds. A study on the Civilian Conservation Corps efforts to reclaim the old forests & build some of the most beautiful rustic structures in America.

The original image is blurred, the camera slipped or perhaps it was a windy day in the mountains. There's no name inscribed on back. She's unknown, but not on that day so long ago. She's my longest mystery to date.

“Oconalufty River (Missing Portal in Time) #BlueSkyArtShow #Layers #EastCoastKin

“Oconalufty River (Missing Portal in Time),” digital composite build from the ‘America: Lost & Found’ series, one of the few ‘A:L&F’ works which include a person.

They are the specters, the shades, the one gone missing, that one who must have done something wrong, or possibly just the one who remained unmarried and was eventually allowed to lie in the sun, flat on a table baked by sunlight each day until the albumin or nitrates faded, leaving their visage just an enigmatic ghostly shape.

Here is one of those images to me. She resides in the Bin of Kershaw/Lancaster counties, her life was lived between circa 1922-1928 to maybe as long as 2010-2015.

Yet I do not know who she is. I may never know, but I have an idea she is one of my maternal grandmother’s extended family. That narrows it down to abut 12-15 young women somewhere in their 20-33rd year between the years of 1946-1960. I can guess those years by the physical photograph shape and the undulating edge which in our family matches one of my Grandparents old Brownie cameras.

She remains nameless to this day.

It was in picnic shelter such as this one where I learned, meeting them first hand, Hippies were of all of all constructions, side by side with those who just as well seen them banned from the parks, parkways & small town Mom & Pop stores just off the Parkway.

Day by day, step by step, inch by inch, the mill town enclosures winnowed away, replaced by views alien, beyond the pale of even Marvl comics. Which was saying something.

Rocky Knob Picnic Grounds about to become enshrouded by fog, as most haunted places are in Time.

There are ghosts, and then, ghosts within us, and they are the embers near where we whisper their names, and they curl up beside us in our sleep, and calm our anxieties, and coo to our dreams. The tables, the fountains—they are still there, but vacant of people for they no longer exist.

They bend away from us now.

On the grassy overlook shoulders exist old, weathered concrete posts stand like sentinels. They are poured forms, using aggregate crushed gravel, with two odd horizontal slots about 3 inches wide & 1 inch high. They make for interesting subjects against the sky.

These are the seemingly insignificant features that intrigue me as a person who has memories of these two ribbons in the sky, connecting The Great Smoky Mountains National Park of Western North Carolina to the upper border of the Skyline Drive, begun in 1934 as part of the Franklln Delano Roosevelt administration’s earlier public works projects.

I call these henges, but that not what they are. They are not mile markers. They aren't hitching posts although four people insisted that was the original purpose. They're up on both the Parkways. I think I saw 9-10. Actually they may have only been on the Skyline Drive Parkway.

I think they might have been posts to chain the old round trashcans to keep the bears from spreading trash everywhere?

I like to consider them to be old standing stones. These posts vary between pale silver gray to medium gray and tan. This one is standing on a healthy patch of grassy overlook with a view far down into a valley. I think this might have been in Virginia. The sky is clouded with almost luminescent pale-blue light, almost glowing from above. The sky in the far background is free of clouds, offering a calm & serene sense of age.

1️⃣ Hello #Bluesky! I'm Tom Ogburn (@bardicarts artist account) I'm launching this dedicated "Parkways Projects" GSMNP-BRP-SDP & ShenandoahNP 🏕️

The theme is #Blur at the #BlueSkyArtShow & its still running—you can still post if it's still Saturday, Jan 18 where you are!

Here's a Blur from Here! 🧵⬇️

Th predominant image you see here is when we drove down to St. Augustine for a four day trip. Wee're at Fort San Marcos here. But come August, we were up at Little Switzerland and Tweetsie Railroad, which began our switch from Motels at the beaches to Camping/Motels in the Mountains.

This Projec will end up being a Photo Essay on the history of the Great Smky Mountains NP, the Blue Ridge Parkway, the Skyline Drive Parkway and then Shenandoah NP. It was a grand plan by FDR, and introduced the CCC and eventually the WPA.

There'll be a lot of elements to The Parkways Projects, both happy, sad, dark and uplifting. For it is a story of the Appalachians.

Photo restoration of an old 1944 era photo of a CCC built creek bridge in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Sepia toned look.

“The Parkways Project” began as an idea to tell a family story which was always occurred between two to three weeks per year, belonging to a family from Kershaw, a small town in South Carolina between the years of 1966 to 1972. The key years were the camping vacations, from 1968 to 1971, until a small business was opened in that same small town.

But in 2019, 50 years since 1969 (the year the hippies populated our vacations—again, inaugurating changes for one of us) I had gone into ghost picnic grounds, where spirits lived amid a new and thickly rooted understory. One by one, like dominos the size of dolmens, falling without a sound on thickly matted forest floors of fir needles, another strange but wonderful revelation emerged, for the forests themselves had altered. Eerily beautiful portions of memories had become each a wavering mirage of a bridge to Brigadoon in the mists shrouding the tree trunks and retreating grassy arenas.

"The Smokies have averaged nearly 12 million visits per year over the past decade. The highest record was set in 2021 when over 14 million visitors headed to the park in search of outdoor activities amid the COVID pandemic." ≈ Knoxville News Sentinel, Feb 27, 2024

I had grown fond of the naming conventions of "Game of Thrones" years before the series rolled up on my doorstep in Jerome Arizona, and long before I moved her, to the Pojoaque lands, on that River, which usually is 95% dry wash, except for some days in Monsoon season. s was this day. The deep charcoal clouds are breaking open to allow a sliver of white Sunlight down to illuminate the swift freshet which had yet to flow in front of me in that moment. Colors are tans, golds, deep charcoal grays, deep indigo blue at the top of the image where the clouds were their darkest. The skies are silver gray and the merest hints of blue on the back left of the image.

This area was actually a wetlands zone, which held a standing rivercane and cattails swamp for all the seven years I lived there. There were floods and washouts maybe twice a year. Otherwise, dry wash.

The still amber water of the old mill race pond reflects the soft sun above as well as itself, almost creating a diptych in a manner of speaking. There is no longer a mill at this site, but a beautiful dark granite stone-cut dam still holds back the water above.

A very old raven's wing feather which fell to the ground at my feet back in 2000 as I was shooting an old concrete bridge abutment between Moab UT and Interstate 70. I kept if for years on he dashboard of my white Caravan, then on buying my New Jeep Liberty in 2005, transferred it to Epona's dashboard.

Something new from a border region, of something very old. I'm at Walters Dam here, in Tennessee, one of the original TVA Dam Projects. The scene is an old road sign "SLOW," in the immediate foreground. It's probably one of the very first aluminum ready-made signs, possibly from the 1960's. The chrome yellow paint has faded to a very pale butter yellow. The paint has crazed mightily, separating in places a quarter of an inch apart. The old WPA built Walters Power House is in the background. A main electrical array, made of steel trussworks, recedes on the right. Above it all looms the lush green mountainside of the Great Smoky Mountains State Park.

The most reflective day compiled in August 2019. Period.

$You may glance at this and see nothing but a random collection of debris. It is that; debris. It is also a collection of concrete memories shattered by change; be a default in the atmosphere of passage. A paean to what must be removed. Had it not been by a random mention to a ranger at the gate of what I was looking for at Julian Price, this photograph would never have been made. He told me where to look for the orange tape, and gave me permission to enter the ruin. Permission. Permission to visit one's past? Well, okay then, here's my hand stamp; here is my pass. For on the day before, and that night before, I had not been able to locate the bath house, the "Comfort Station," as they had been designated by the 1980's, during the Carter Administration. We had camped nearby this latrine, as we called it, modern for it's day, and with every amenity possibly allowed by the National Park Service, including the requisite skunk terrorizing the piecemeal communities of spirit where we met each other shaving, showering, appealing to the day-to-day contingencies while we barely knew the other. To be honest, as I walked across the shattered realm of what once was a state of the art facility, it was a visit fraught with fractal memories. As I drove back to the area in the upstart rain, I saw the orange tape and wandered over. The water had changed the colors to jewel tones. I found piece after piece of shardic remains, each wrapped in cloth and kept for another day for when the Hybrid Works call for reality-driven constituent parts. I still have these parts. These shards. One rides with me in my Jeep to this day. They are the basest of lows, on the one hand. They are the pinnacle of highs on the other.$
