Well, the wedding was great. The bride was radiant, the groom beaming, and their respective parents, family, and friends overjoyed to see them so happy. On top of everyone's happiness, it was a damn near perfect autumn day, and later the full moon rose over the water for a perfect evening.

Besides the wedding, it was nice to get out of the city and be upstate. The leaves are turning, and you can smell the woodsmoke on the air. I spent a little time up at my Mother's place, and did a little manual labor for her and Red. They're in the middle of raising the level of the backyard, because they are sick the stream that runs at the edge of their property flooding the yard every thaw. So I wheelbarrowed some dirt for them (they're on their 6th truckload) and stacked a bunch of wood up on the porch for the fireplace.

I wish I had a fireplace...
