WIndy, Weekend Weddings

It was a bit "breezy" but sunny and warm for a change, which is good for an outdoor wedding. The wedding went off without any noticable glitches. The corsages for the parents of the groom and the usher ended up at our chalet, so we went down early to find them. Fortunately Rodneys parents were standing in front of the hotel when we got there. The usher we found "stealing" hydro for the music. Isn't life fun. While standing around we realized that there was no table for signing the papers. I ran up to the hotel and they were on it right away. I was just leaving when I saw them loading a table on a golf cart to haul it down. I barely beat them back. We, and all the others there, had to get a picture of these two young men roaring down the road with a table balanced over their heads. The even brought the table cloth and the trim for the edge! The reception started at 5, but dinner wasn't til 7. At about 6:45 the groom arrived and informed Laura (for the first time) that she was supposed to have been playing background music for the reception. Back to the chalet, loaded the stereo (couldn't find the music they wanted so we just brought the cd from the wedding) We had music while we ate. It was fun. Rodney & Kristy had a bed for us at one of the chalets for both Friday & Saturday night. We didn't cancel our camp spot, since someone wanted it, but they never showed up. We forfeited that $40 but got to sleep in a real bed both nights. It was interesting to see the chalets finally, since they are in our land titles district and we record the ownership of the time shares there. At least now I can picture what people are getting ( eg a 2/5 share in an 1/50th share of a building) We came home early on Sunday. No one else was awake in our chalet when we left, and we were home by 10:30. We went down and checked on Rodney & Kristy"s cats, did the office, and sat around for the rest of the day. The house is very dirty (read dusty from the wind) but maybe Jim will see that today. IF not it will still be here when I get around to it. I had fun
