home at last

ok, so......after a round trip drive of over 28 hours....we are back from this wedding.....and though i will confess to spending enjoyable moments with extended kin i do not see often enough.......ii cannot say that i had a good time this weekend......i suppose it all comes down to the ulimate burning question...just how fast would one's spouse get remarried under the circumstances......i was surprised last evening when the younger brother-in-law called me over to where he was sitting......gentle readers...this was after the bride and groom had left...at which time the new bride's family gathered in their clan.....on the deck and in the gazebo, and we were gathered in ours (on the lawn in the rented tent)......and my brother-in-law who says very little in general.....said......take a good look, because none of us will likely be together in this place ever again.......which was a sentiment that i has thought to myself, but not said aloud......this is the last of my thoughts on this matter, by the way.......now that i am home, i will pretend that there is closure, and that i have moved on........
