T - 11 Days:
We've been on the West Coast for about a month and we missed the only East Coast earthquake of my life time. Furthermore, there is a vicious hurricane threatening the entire Atlantic coast line. Sounds like it's time to head to California for Labor Day. It's a glorious spot: By order, summer lingers through September. By 8:00 am the morning fog must disappear. In short, there's simply not a more congenial spot for "happily-ever-aftering" than here. Furthermore, Northern California is entering that pre-fall season again - complete with tasty blackberries and slumping offenses.
The numbers are in and it looks like we're coming in just about 260. Yup, you read that right 2-6-0 of our closest friends and family are going to be at the Cloverleaf Shindig. We are still holding out on a thru-hiker or two, but that's what it looks like now.
Because of the number of people California state law is requiring that 15 of our guests are certified in CPR and poison control. To be fair to all of our guests we'll be having a lottery the morning of the wedding to determine who needs to be trained that morning. We'll order Papa Johns for those selected. If you'd like to volunteer ahead of time or if you already can recognize the rare NorCal fire iguana, please let us know. We certainly want to avoid this.
All else is progressing well. We can't wait to have you. If you're coming in from out of town, do us a favor and drop an email to let us know when you'll arrive and where you're crashing. See ya'll soon ...
