I always considered Hong to be
so beautiful
- and a more beautiful
bride I've never seen. I wished Hong "all the best" a few moments before she walked
the isle... |

- The ceremony...

The ceremony
was beautiful, but I must admit to having been flooded with my own
thoughts. Though in a church full of happy people, I felt like I was
alone, and face-to-face with a very hard reality. After the ceremony,
feeling nearly overwhelmed by it all, I stepped outside for some
fesh air. Weddings, like Christmas Day,
Thanksgiving Day, and some funerals, inspire reflection. Reflection upon paths
taken, and paths not taken... and upon what might have been... |

I sat inside Bigfoot and watched Hong and Andy leave in the limo... |

at Lake Union in Seattle...

The band was finishing up a sound check as I entered... |

- The reception was quite the bash!

- I was honored to have been invited to attend Hong's wedding. Hong and Andy
are a fine couple and I wished them a lifetime of happiness.
