My sister and brother-in-law hired the Squash Blossom Boys to play their wedding (above). Singer Dustin Orbeson plays the mandolin (above) and is seen in black and white below. My uncle said he would never have chosen a blue grass group for a wedding… but it worked (above: Dustin Orbeson, and Kit Murray’s banjo (left side of [...]
Another photo from my sister’s wedding – things that make you cry. Onions and weddings. We had hor dourves prior to the wedding, and this happy couple beat my sister and her beau to it. They graced an onion dip of sort as a garnish… it was good.

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas. Complete with glass robot Christmas tree ornaments.
