Roadrunners and a Wedding

We arrived in Houston on April 2nd and I haven't stopped running yet. So much to do, so many friends to visit, not to mention the Mexican dinners to consume... and best of all, a wonderful wedding. Vince's daughter Sharon married Lynn Horne on April 10th on the Riviera Maya in Mexico, just south of Cancun. The reception was held in her brother's back yard this past weekend -- the weather was perfect, food was great, friends and family were wonderful.

The wedding was held on the beach at sunset, the bride wore a beautiful white dress and white flip flops, the groom wore Tommy Bahama linen. It was beautiful. The professional pictures are in process, but I employed my trusty camera to the tune of about 300 shots. I'd love to upload them all, but here are the highlights.

And now I must pack for the next leg of this journey -- 5 days in Knoxville with Dad & Ann. The Smoky Mountains will be beautiful, and it will be a chance to slow the pace. Until next time...
