Very Nice

With no rain predicted we flew the Eagle under threatening skies to help our friends Mike and Cindy celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.

The party was held at the Maize Valley Winery.

In addition to the cake, there was a nice cold buffet, sweet tea, lemonade, water, and a selection of beers and wines made by the winery.

I had intended to take more pictures of the party, but we came outside to talk to some people we had just met and got caught up in our conversation for the duration of the party!

Cindy’s cousin Steve and partner Jean came all the way from New York to attend.

To help greet all of the guests, Mike circulated inside while Cindy visited outside.

Lookin’ great in her fedora.

The party was a great success with nice mix of family, neighbors and friends.

We enjoyed our ride home in perfect weather through the beautiful Ohio country.

Cindy told us that when they were married, they didn’t get any of their cake.  Whenever they got a piece, they got interrupted and someone would pick up their cake.  She asked her mom to take the top layer home and keep it, but her mom went on vacation and took the cake with her!  The cake today was made the same way as the original cake.  It took 50 years, but they finally got a piece of their wedding cake.

Tomorrow we make some yummy stuff.
