Minnesota Hats Off to Thee!

Jul 11, 2005 by Daniel Ross-Jones

First, congratulations to the happy couple. Andrea and Dan’s wedding was beautiful, and it was awesome to get to see everyone again.

I couldn’t remember what time the ceremony started, so Brian and I showed up ready for a 2:00 wedding. (It was really at 2:30.) As soon as a red Cavalier with a Carthage College sticker on the back was spotted, the herds came running. Hannah and Brook came out first, followed by a summons for me to go back to the bridal room to give my greetings to Andrea. It’s always nice to be so popular.

The reception was at the alumni center at the U of M. Gorgeous building. Makes me wish I went to a slightly larger (or more wealthy) college so we could have something like that for use on our campus. It wouldn’t be an event without pictures!

It was great to catch up with everyone, and I genuinely enjoyed conversation with my parents this time home. Shocking, I know. The weather isn’t better there–hot and muggy Thursday through Sunday. Just looked at the weather icon on my dashboard–it’s 80 in Kenosha with a projected high of 86. Looks like they’re hoping for some storms tomorrow, with a cooler Wednesday, but then back to the drought.

Brought a carload back with me–it’s all chillin’ in the living room. My roommates are going to kill me. We’re having a little bit of drama related to dish washing, but I’m going to be cooking them all a dinner on Tuesday so they should be happy then. Went shopping at home and here in Kenosha last night, got two skillet meals, some noodles for pasta salad (along with appropriate other ingredients) and materials to make apple crisp. Should be tasty!
