You're a better friend than I, I dislike weddings so much I'd sneak out of the whole thing. I hope your dress is pretty at least!

Well, the bride booked the wedding at... a horse farm! So the scenery will be nice, anyway. In fact, I'm tempted to go down early so I can take a riding lesson there before the ceremony!

You don't want to walk from the train station and it is a more than two miles. There will almost certainly be cabs at the station.

Good luck with the train....it's never on time.

Ron,

I will definately be there on Aug. 16,17,18. I am going to really try for at least a day or two on opening weekend also. I will be in Maryland the week before and hope to get back in time to attend a couple of cards. I will keep you informed, hope to see you there at some point.

Yeah, but seeing as how it's costing me a third of what renting a car or flying would cost, I'll deal with the delays. If it's late I'll just dry my tears with the extra money I'll have for gambling.
