ὧν ἓν καὶ τὸ σόν, ὦ σχέτλιε, μόριον εἰς τὸ πᾶν συντείνει βλέπον ἀεί, Plato, Laws 10 (translation)
καίπερ πάνσμικρον ὄν, σὲ δὲ λέληθεν περὶ τοῦτο αὐτὸ ὡς γένεσις ἕνεκα
ἐκείνου γίγνεται πᾶσα, ὅπως ᾖ τῷ τοῦ παντὸς βίῳ ὑπάρχουσα εὐδαίμων οὐσία,
οὐχ ἕνεκα σοῦ γιγνομένη, σὺ δ’ ἕνεκα ἐκείνου

Nora and Rodrigo
Congratulations to these wonderful kids
And here's to Paul, Keisuke, Rilian, Lysbet, Chris, Carrie . . . what a weekend. Many thanks to the happy couple for putting together such good times.
After a fun evening at the Ginger Man, we hit the water with Paul and Keisuke.

Then it was on to the wedding, at the very pretty Barr Mansion. I didn't get any good shots, so I encourage you to take a look at their site.

Um, shaky hand, I guess

Great, and late, time at the wedding, reception, and after party. What better for the next day, then, than a nice drive and some nice barbecue?

And then a bit of shopping, perhaps?
Boot store. Carrie looked so good in the pair she got that she was featured on a website called styleshaker.com
Here's a photo, courtesy of styleshaker.com:

How could you not stop here for a snack?
mmm
And we enjoyed a lovely post-wedding rehearsal dinner: here's the bride and groom leading some toasts
Finally, honky tonk:
Chris, Emily, and Carrie outside the justly famous Broken Spoke. Willie Nelson's played there, parts of the excellent "Friday Night Lights" tv-show have been filmed there . . . and on and on

I don't know; both seem self-explanatory to me.
ReplyDeleteHow about this:
Dia de los Muertos on Wikipedia.
And, for Mimi's comment, please see above, regarding Carrie's boots.
Thanks for reading.
