LeMasurier-Webster wedding

When I first heard a train and canoes were involved in their plans, I knew I was in for a fun wedding in Thetford, Vt., last weekend. Since there was no place to park at their home on the Connecticut River, the couple asked the White River Flyer to pick up their guests as part of the train's regular route. After that, the the wedding party paddled up river to the ceremony. A hot time was had by all! More photos can be seen on my Facebook page, or in the Prints section of my Web site.

Super Soaker

This evening, I stopped by the Tunbridge Library to take pictures of the children involved in the summer reading program. Ben Wolfe not only read a story about beach-combing to the kids, but he also had a water-related demonstration to show them afterwards. It quickly degenerated into a game of Soak Ben. He's such a good sport.

Zug-Wells wedding

Last weekend's steamy July weather didn't slow anyone down at a fun wedding held at the Tunbridge Church and the fairgrounds nearby. My daughter sang in the choir, whose performance everyone enjoyed immensely! More photos can be seen on my Facebook page, or in the Prints section of my Web site.

Fantastic Fourth

To celebrate my wife's upcoming 50th birthday, we were treated by my in-laws to a great Fourth of July in Boston. A Red Sox game in the hot sun at Fenway Park was followed by delicious seafood and then we watched the city's big fireworks display from their apartment building (minus the crowd of 800,000 down by the river).






From top, fireworks on the Charles River could be seen blocks away from an apartment building on Massachusetts Avenue; a souvenir stand outside of Fenway Park shows jerseys of the team's stars — except for designated hitter David Ortiz, all of the players are out with injuries (Ortiz' ego might have been injured in the game against Baltimore because he didn't get a hit). First baseman Kevin Youkilis rounds third base after hitting a ninth-inning home run over the Green Monster, the Red Sox only score of the game in the 6-1 loss; his attendance at the game recognized on the big screen, legendary Red Sox pitcher (and Vermonter) Bill "Spaceman" Lee left after the game in a minivan that was parked on Yawkey Way amongst the players' Mercedes and Land Rovers; before heading home, a fan grabs a picture of the new sculpture "The Teammates" that shows Bobby Doerr, Dom DiMaggio, Johnny Pesky and Ted Williams from the Red Sox' 1946 season.
