Two weddings and one funeral
Today my neighbors and good friends John Rogers and Katherine Lobato were married at a gorgeous location in the Community Park. I was worried that the smoke would put a damper on the whole thing, but it actually gave the background a surreal mystical quality in the photos. Lots of water and an occasional aspirin keeps the smoke-induced headaches away. They both have great families and it was a great who's-who of the Sohum environmental activist contingent.
My son was the ring bearer and my daughter was the flower girl. Both did their jobs just fine. A great day.
....
I'd hoped to make it to Beginnings where my law partner and friend Roxanne was married to Ehren, but my son grew tired while my daughter was dancing up a storm so I had to take him home while their mom stuck around to let my daughter dance. There were others shuffling between weddings.
Roxanne and Ehren are celebrating their marriage as well as their newborn son (6 weeks old).
Congratulations to both couples. Nice to have some reasons for celebration after a very rough Sohum week.

Still smoky, but I can see the stars tonight.

Actually, there was also a funeral of sorts, as Paul Pancoast's memorial gathering took place just across the river from the Community Park at Pancoast's Ranch at about the same time as Kathryn and John's wedding. Paul was a sweet and generous man who will be missed.

John and Katherine's wedding was beautiful from beginning to end. And your kids, do you send them to cute lessons or something Eric? Man!

Katherine and John have been through much together in just a few years. Best wishes to them.

I'm happy to see your blog, Erik! Thanks for keeping me updated with local happenings. Being so far away these days it does my heart good to see things such as Kathryn and John's wedding in the midst of losing another wonderful neighbor, Paul.
Sending thoughts and wishes to my So Hum family, and hoping that the smoke is clearing, and making way for some light...Hugs and misses, Ava

I don't know either couple nor the person who moved along, but congrats to the couples and peace to the person.

I went to a funeral and a wedding on the same day awhile back and noticed some similarities. People dressed the same, there was a lot of food and drink, and stories/toasts were somewhat interchangable by switching the past and present tense.
With love to all...
