We took a sabbatical from sailing while we helped daughter Ariana marry her now-husband, Chad, and attended to land issues. Ariana’s wedding was outside, on the water, so we put a lot of prayer into the weather issues, especially when rain pummeled the area just one week before the wedding. The heavens opened, homes flooded, and folk in this part of the world had water issues comparable to those from Hurricane Floyd, who slammed the East Coast a number of years ago. It was quite messy.
But the wedding week seemed blessed: sun and more sun to dry the land and allow all the lovely young women to enjoy their bare shoulders. It was gorgeous!
And here’s one of the bride’s parents with the couple.
We hope to be back on board our floating home sometime soon. Until then, we’re landlubbers for a change.
Wonderful pictures, N. Love your daughter’s dress. And your hat. And smiles.
Thanks, Nicole. It’s my mama’s hat, one that I’ve confiscated a number of times!
Normandie, lovely pictures, and you look beautiful! You haven’t changed a bit. Are you staying at Sleepy Creek? If you ever get a chance to come to DE and visit we would all love to see you.
Well, Karen, the nice thing about photographs from a distance is that (if you’re careful) they won’t show all the aging issues. Now, that one of Michael makes him look older than he normally does, poor man. Fortunately, he’s not as vain as I am! It would be great fun to see you folk again, but with all these ports of call in various parts of the States, I’m not sure DE is going to be a priority any time soon. Perhaps, if you drive south some day we could meet.
Hugs to all,
N
