Busy Weekend

So what I thought was going to be a quieter weekend ended up being very, very busy.

After a Friday evening phone call from Erica Bartlett, Andrea and I decided to go to Lindsey's wedding after all.  And even though it's six hours round-trip of driving (all in one day!), the company couldn't be beat.  In a rare occurrence, Andrea and I got to hang out with THREE other married couples all day, specifically, the Palmers (Lisa and Andrew), Winquists (Chelsi and Dave) and Bartletts (Erica and Josh).  The day was beautiful, the celebration was unique and the food was outstanding (and homemade).  And even though it was only for a little while, it seemed as though I was right back in Alfred on one of their early fall or late spring days.  Lindsey had her wedding at home, so included below are some of the more scenic views of the Campana Homestead.




On Sunday, Andrea and I went to church, did some catching-up and socialized with our church family.  The highlight of the day came in the evening when we attended Shakespeare in the Park to see our trivia friend (and guru) Charles play the Duke of Albany in King Leer. Although he wasn't too active before the intermission, he did a phenomenal job in the second half of the play and had some really sweet lines.

Since moving into the area, there has been a core of us who partake in a trivia team on Mondays.  However, we rarely have a full team.  After the play, Charles seemed quite excited that so many of us showed up.  I didn't think too much about it at first, but I later realized later that we were the whole team minus one.  To have so many of us all together in one place is a rare happening.  So I'm glad that made his night.  After all the days he had to work, I'm sure it made it all worth it.  Maybe one of these days, all of us will be able to show up on a random Monday because surely with all of us (9) we would be able to win, right?  Here's to hoping.
