 I am scanning in some photos at a very large size.  23x35 inches, 300

 there is an easy way to cover this without having to touch up each
 speck by hand. 

You might try the Despeckle filter (Filters-Enhance-Despeckle).  It
does best at dust removal if you select a small area containing the
dust speck before applying it, but depending on your image it might
work okay when applied to the whole thing.

Thanks.  I will test that.  I played around last night with combinations
of blurs on different layers, then adding the layers together (probably
not the correct way to describe what I did, but I don't know the word). 
So far not really happy with what I've gotten.  . . . Hmm  Don't take
that as me blaming Gimp mind you, just my inability to use the program.
