Wedding

My big brother went and got himself hitched yesterday.  

It was wonderful; a very low-key ceremony at the house, followed by a big party with all the families. It was just perfect for the two of them.

The Groom and the Best Man wait for the bride.

San Antonio

One truck, two planes and an SUV later, we have safely arrived in San Antonio, Texas!

For those of you who are unaware, we're here for the week because my brother is getting married! The big day is Saturday, so we're taking time to be tourists today.

Some pictures so far:

You know you're in Texas when they decorate with cowboy boot planters!

Nephew looking handsome.

More Zoo pictures to come in a later post ...

My Buddy

I'm sure you know my friend John.

He greets me at about the halfway point on my running trail.

It's the little things that keep you going.

This Made Me Happy on a Sunday

This Made Me Happy This Afternoon

Spamalot

Did I mention I got to go see Spamalot last week?

I did.

It was just as wonderful as I'd hoped it would be (aside from the horrible sound mixing that Eisenhower Auditorium insists upon.)

My thoughts from the show: there are two kinds of people who go to see Spamalot - theatre geeks and Python geeks.

Rarely are the two the same person.

The theatre geeks laugh at all the theatre jokes (and there are many.)

The Python geeks laugh one line before  the Python jokes (because they know they're coming.)

I would have loved to see the original Broadway with Tim Curry as King Arthur.

I'll leave you with everyone's favorite earworm.
