9/12/10 - A nearly complete set...

...of plates, soup bowls, dessert bowls and saucers, all white ceramic, but with a raised flower along one edge.

Today we were out in the yard, having lunch under our aspen trees.  We heard a chinking sound, and G---- hailed the leaver.  A slender young man with a dark goatee said, "Yeah, we just had a wedding reception and my friend brought all her spare dishes - but we have dishes already."  "Well, thanks, and congratulations."  "Yeah, thanks."

Weddings.  Marriage.  Wow.  We are a brave lot, we humans.

Our tenants leave Wednesday for Spokane to get married out in a field.  The guests will camp out, the bride and bridesmaids will wear flip-flops, guests are encouraged to bring their drums.  This seems a good start to a lifetime relationship: be close to Nature; your home may have to move with you; it's okay to be comfortable; play music, loudly sometimes.
