So this is what it's like being married!

7 hours and 22 minutes into married life and I'm pooped! But what a great assembly of friends and family today for the wedding at Friends Meeting and the reception later in Arlington. The problem with weddings is they bring together people you don't get to see very often and would like to spend time with but there are so many of them that you don't get to spend enough time with any of them. There's also a feeling of regret because you know you should see all of those people more often but you don't.

Real kudos go to our friends Bernie, Scott, Ronny, John, and Carl from Harrisburg who did a superb job of catering the reception and really worked tirelessly.

It has been a wonderful and an auspicious start to our officially married life (except in Virgina which of course doesn't recognize any such thing).

Thank you to everyone who blessed our wedding with their presence today and all those who sent their thoughts and wishes even though they couldn't be there.
