It has been a long time since the last post. The holidays and such got in the way of blogging progress. At the last post, we were in Santa Fe at the campground, touring a bit, and getting ready for the wedding. This post covers the wedding, which occurred on August 24, 2019.
Katie, Megan, and I, plus others, arrived early at the Randall Davey Audubon Center to set up and decorate for the festivities, which started around 1:00. We first went to Megan's condo to pick up flowers, centerpieces and other floral decorations. Megan pulled an all-nighter to get these ready.
The weather was beautiful. It was a clear, sunny day and cool in the morning but got a bit warm in the afternoon, especially in the sun. The site is in a valley outside of Santa Fe with beautiful views of foothills. The center has a brand new building set up for events. It has a kitchen, bathrooms and dance floor. It also is open on the side that faces the valley giving a wonderful view of the event.

Kevin and Cina had the event catered by a Mexican restaurant that provide excellent food. Whole foods provided pies and cakes for dessert. Kevin brought is some beer from the Santa Fe brewery. Everyone had a great time. The highlight of the festivities was a choreographed wedding dance put on by Kevin and Cina. It started as a standard slow dance and then morphed into a complete dance routine. It was the hit of the wedding. Cina, who studied dance, designed the routine and they practiced for a month prior to the wedding.
