Commitment

I had thought of doing a blow by blow description of my trip to California, the Tak interviews and finally the wedding. But only got as far as trying out the mail-in-posting system - hence the rather random choice for my last entry. Or maybe not so random... I had some rather startling news while I was in California that made Jane Austen seemed rather apt.

But in the end there was just too much to write about. So I will skip California entirely and trust that as far as the wedding is concerned a photo or two is indeed worth a thousand words.

The bride and groom don't have money, a car, a house, or a job lined up after the groom's graduation. But they do have the one thing that most young people seem to lack - COMMITMENT. And personally, I think that is the only thing that really counts. After 30 years we should know - the only thing we had when we married was a car!

I think all my wonderful cousins and their friends had fun pulling off this wedding - they called it "the chocolate wedding" - and we Elliots certainly enjoyed it. I've posted our small, rather amateurish selection of wedding photos at Image Station. (The "real photos" haven't arrived yet.)
