May 20, 2016---off to Lesterville, Mo:

After spending a couple days in St. Louis---having freon put in our house AC unit and just recuperating from the moves; it was time to hit the road again!  But this was the main event that we were coming back to St. Louis for---Brenda and Jerry's wedding.  They've been "dating" for over 20 years and finally decided to tie the knot.  I told them I was taking their wedding pictures and they agreed.  So today we headed a couple hundred miles down to Southern Missouri to get ready for the wedding.
It was a rather pretty ride.

 even had to cross over a shallow "creek" on our way.

 They own a piece of property down there and decided to have the wedding there.  Here are the dining flies.

 Faith and Tim showed up from Knoxville shortly after we did and helped set up for the wedding, too.  Here Faith's getting the photo booth ready.

 Their land even had a nice little clearing where they set up the chairs for the ceremony.

 Tables being set up.

 anyone who arrived a day early was put to work.

 the food fly going up.

 the little cabin they built on property.

 Tim and Faith still working on the photo booth.  It was a big hit.  Seems like everyone was using it.

 decor going up.

 They even rented a cabin for us for tonight and tomorrow night at a resort nearby. 

Time to rest up for the wedding.
