A Reunion of Sorts




I had a social Sunday. After church, I ran into some family friends and they invited me over to chat at their table at the McDonald's restaurant nearby. A daughter in the family had recently gotten married. I was shown fabulous wedding photos on her dad's cell phone. Wedding photos always bring me near to tears for some reason, I guess it's such a beautiful, sentimental event. Coincidentally, I had gone to university at the same time as one of the dad's brothers and he had come over from Australia for his niece's wedding. I was treated like a long lost friend! It's amazing how we can remember people from over thirty years ago, and be able to catch up on the past somewhat. In fact, they said the occasion marked 46 years since all the dad's siblings had been able to re-unite. They are spread all over the world.


Then I had to run off and go about my business. I had to go to the Roger Mooking Executive Chef series downtown (see yesterday's post). It was a busy day.
