A Wedding by the Sea
I love all the things there are,
and of all the fires
love is the only inexhaustible one;
and that's why I go from life to life,
from guitar to guitar,
and I have no fear
of light or of shade,
and being almost earth myself,
I spoon away at infinity.
-- Pablo Neruda

The Cooking Anthropologist & her husband, the Computer Scientist sharing their first dance.
I was honored to be asked to read at their wedding. I read a poem by Neruda, an excerpt I included above.
A German tradition, where the new bride and groom have to saw a log in half to represent teamwork and unity. You can see these two were having fun.
Below is JK & me. I haven't seen her since her Vermont wedding in 1999. Now she has two beautiful boys!
The obligatory MHC shot below.
African drummers at the reception.
I spent time with the Cooking Anthropologist & the Computer Scientist in Tanzania when she was doing her year of fieldwork. We went snorkeling off the coast of Kigombe and lunched on a sand island only exposed during low tide.
