Friday:Artist friend from Alexandria, Jann Gilmore, held a reception for a year's worth of watercolor painting at our village library. It drew quite a crowd (50+) which made Jann very happy. Her architectural and structural painting is spectacular. I'll show a close-up on a forthcoming post. Afterwards, the crew who helped to set-up had supper on her downtown screen porch. You know I want to live downtown!
Saturday:
A wedding celebration for two middle-agers, in a field on the edge of the forest - 150 people were there to celebrate and dance to the Grey Goose Band, and eat delicious offerings from friends, and of course, wedding cake. It was one of the sweetest, most beautiful weddings ever attended, with babies in backpacks of dancing parents, mothers and sons, daughters and fathers doing the polka together, and well-called contra dancing which T and I loved. We connected with some wonderful people whom we never met before, and T saw some folks he hadn't seen in years. The couple arrived by helicopter and when T asked the story of that, the groom sheepishly admitted he BUILT IT HIMSELF!
Sunday/Tomorrow: Our annual beach cocktail beach party. I've got to CLEAN HOUSE, in case it rains!
