Scenes From A Wedding

We just flew - by car - back from my brother Eric and his bride Jen's wedding in Illinois. It was an event to remember! We had a blast and it was a jam-packed three-day weekend.

In fact, between Mary and I, we shot hundreds of pictures. I have nine to share before I collapse into bed...


Here's the happy couple fleeing church to their getaway car (as best man, I was the driver).


Mary and I in front of the church. What a well-dressed, dignified couple!


Did I mention the Halloween-eve reception had a costume theme?


Even Dad and Mom got in to the act.


Mary bares her fangs. I see this image a lot, believe it or not!


Velcome to the party. I vant to drink your Jack Daniels.


My favorite sister Karen and her awesome husband Bud.


Karen, Eric and I mug for the camera.


And they lived happily ever after...

More picture to come! More later,

And The Answer Is...

Well, WHAT was it?

Some Wheaties cereal? A sponge? Cliff Ward's brain on drugs?

No, no and no!

Early yesterday, that other brainiac Rob Shelburne nailed it on Facebook: A kidney stone.

Yes, I recently battled another kidney stone and received another bout of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.

Fun! As a result of the shocks, a 3-4mm piece of what doctors thought was a 7+mm stone made a splash on Saturday night after a few Miller Lites.

I carefully recovered the stone and doctors will analyze it next week to determine what in my diet is causing the stones. The decided to magnify and shoot the stone and post it online was clearly a non-medical decision.

My pain is your laugh-track!

Thanks, all, for playing!
