Here's some pictures from Margy and Steve's wedding.
It was really nice. NoseDive had it on her fishing boat, out of the Riviera Beach marina. Tour de ReBar was the same day, so we were thinking about doing part of that, and then riding to the marina, but instead we worked like dogs to replace the fence that blew down during the hurricane.

When we got there a crowd was already waiting to board. Steve's mom was relaxing in her chair, and Annette was videotaping the guests.

There was a lot of food, mostly middle eastern style. The seas were 4-5 feet, so the boat stuck to the intracoastal waterway. The wedding party got formed up, and moved to the back end of the boat (I think it's called the stern). Margy looked great, and the ceremony was nice. And quick. We watched from the second floor (I think it's called the upper deck).

After the ceremony was over the picture-taking continued. Here's four good shots of me and Linda. Except the camera lens was smudged. But the lighting was really good.

A bunch of Linda's students were there, so she sat with them. I got some good shots, except the lens was still smudged.

Here's a few more of Linda with her students, and one with one of the moms, who is also a volunteer at the school.

I like these shots of Community. The sunlight coming in through the windows had a great color to it.

Here's a couple more group shots with the last of the good lighting.

Now it was getting dark, people had been drinking for a while, and Bill brought out his camera.

Eventually our three-hour tour ended, and we all found ourselves back on the dock where we started. There were plans for the bride and groom to walk through a path of sparklers (sort of like crossed sabers) but we couldn't get the sparklers lit in the wind. Al and Sherri invited everyone back to their house for more festivities, which sounded like a great idea.
Back at the house the sparklers worked much better. Kids and adults ran around waving sparklers like light sabers. Amazingly, no one was hurt.

As we left the happy couple we could see that Margy was still enjoying herself. What a great wedding!
