Jamie and Heather get married
One of my high school friends was getting married on a farm in Vermont. It was a mini-reunion of sorts. The weather was spectacular, blue skies, great friends new & old, good grub and drink, and a funky local band set the stage for a perfect afternoon. The kids had a blast.
