I made it back OK - late, so today is going to require caffeine in large quantities.

Everything went well, the ceremony was beautiful, the reception was fun, no one was [seriously] injured at any time during the weekend. Very different from the last brother's wedding in that it was far grander - Latin Mass with a full professional choir, a big rented hall at the university there, and lots of little hor d'ourves and cloth napkins and all. ;-) It wasn't stuffy or anything, and they still did the whole MP3 jukebox thing for the music and the caterers were family friends who did the cooking at the bride's house, but it was different.

Then I came home and we handed the dog over the fence as the gates are frozen locked. That was fun.

I'm hoping he does OK for water today. I was going to put out warm water and hope it stayed thawed a good long while, but I didn't. There's snow, but...

We'll go get him in a bit. It's really cold to stay out all day. We've been taking the horses warm water every few hours.

Glad you had fun!

Ugh, I get hives just thinking about complicated weddings. I had more than enough to do with the world's simplest wedding and the idea of a full choir or anything... shudder.

We went and got Cisco.... Poor pitiful creature ;~). Then he didn't even really want in, he wanted the dogs to come out and play. Anyhow... For good or ill, he's here again :~)

How were the cats? We never went over there, so they may have been a little lonely after a long weekend :~)

Glad you're all good, 2J! No word from g'nad yet? Are we assuming they lost power?
