Amy and Lukes Wedding-Savannah GA


We had such a great trip to Savannah by way of Charleston to attend a college friends wedding. It was at the beautiful Cathedral of St. John the Babtist which I'm ashamed to say we never went into durring the time we lived in Savannah. It was a beautiful wedding and it was wonderful to get to attend and see how happy Amy and Luke are. The romance of the event was infectious. We stayed at the fabulous new Mansion at Forsyth, wow what a treat that was! We had a great time playing tourists in our old city. I woke up Sunday AM and had a walk in and around Forsyth Park and was just amazed at what a beautiful city Savannah is. It just seems unreal that people actually get to live in such a beautiful palace day in and out! On the way out of town we meet up with an old professor of mine from SCAD and I got to see the new Fibers Department building. I was so impressed because when I attended in '96-'98 there were probably between 30-50 or so students in our department, now there are over 150! Go FIBERS! On the return trip to Charleston we stopped by our favorite pizza place Vinnie Van Go Go's to pick up two pizza's which we packed in a cooler and ate with Charlotte and Mitch back in Charleston. Okay, it wasn't quite as good that way but we got our Vinnies fix!

Long weekend


This has been a busy long weekend and it's not over yet. Wow, two parties, picking up Ebay furniture and a quick trip to NY to drop off the desk Brendan has built for Ryan. We got a dining table and chairs from EBay and we picked them up locally. To our supprise they are better than we expected but will still require refinishing and re-upolstering of the chairs. I'll upload photo's of the finished project once completed. I went to water the Master Gardeners Demo garden and took a peak at the gardens "next door" of the National Capital Dahlia Society and was blown away. There seriously were "dinner plate" size Dahlia's there, they are spectacular! Last PM we caught up with Highschool friends at Glen and Angies annual Margaritaville party and I made the cats play along... Will post photo's of the great desk Brendan built once we have it in place at Ryans. Enjoy the long weekend!
