Laurie & Gareth's Wedding !

...will be Saturday, May 26, 2007. Time & place you'll know if you're a guest. It's sweet. Pretty traditional, followed by a brunch picnic in the park, but the *other* reception that evening will be a rock n' roll show open to the public - with Calgary and Winnipeg bands!

Yeah, I know, marriage, eek, everyone does it. Hmm. Well I guess I do to. It's completely amazing and shocking when someone says to you, "I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Enough to change a jaded and cynical mind...
