"In his domestic administration my father had this system . . . to keep a journal and insert in it all occurrences of any note . . . A record very pleasant to look at when time begins to efface the memory of events, and very well suited to get us out of perplexity: When was such and such a thing begun? When completed? What retinues came? How long did they stay? Our trips, our absences; marriages; deaths; the receipt of happy or unhappy news . . . An ancient custom, which I think it would be good to revive, each man in each man's home. And I think I am a fool to have neglected it." (Montaigne, Book I, Essay 35 (publ. 1580))

well, that was pretty great! (K&L get married)

Much more to come as additional photos become available . . . but here's a placeholder to report that, indeed, Kerry & Luis were married on 24 March 2017!

Licensed and ready.  Monday, 20 March.

The ceremony was accompanied by ridiculous amounts of fun at so many events over the course of the preceding and succeeding days; by incredibly great attendance by family and friends across generations and geographies; and by an immense feeling of gratitude that we have Kerry, and Luis, and all the family and friends (old and new-ish, in both categories), and such warm and wonderful times together.
Rehearsal (Thursday, 23 March).  EPG - celebrant - did an incredibly nice job.
