A Grafton Country Wedding

Big event. My niece got married on Saturday. This happened out of doors at the family farm. Saturday was a single day of sunshine sandwiched inbetween two solid weeks of rain and the remnants of Hurricane Ike. Scads of guests, set up a huge white tent for the reception. Filled an aluminum canoe with ice, and beer. Squeeze bottles of Deep Woods Off set between the water pitchers and the salt and pepper shakers. Hordes of wedding guests turned up days in advance to pitch in and spiff up the place. A couple of years worth of home projects got finished off and looking good. Vows were said at two in the afternoon. The beer lasted until 2 AM the next morning.
