Hibiscus

The only things liking this rainy weather is ducks and flowers. We have two braided hibiscus plants at the front entry of our home. They have been beautiful all summer long. Not a bad investment of $15.00 from Sam's Club.

I really like how the color of the flower picks up the color from the Liberty Belle across the street.

Barn Swallows

There is a colony of barn swallows on the warehouse building, south side, at the Catskill Point. I took these photos at lunch today. Thanks Mary for letting me know about them.

Maria Elaina & Frank

Congratulations Maria Elaina and Frank on your wedding. Beautiful couple, beautiful family and a day sent from heaven. Rip Van Winkle Country Club, http://www.rvwcc.com/ was the setting for their outdoor ceremony. Set at the foothills of the Catskill mountains, this scene was straight out of a movie. This was a fun wedding with lots of dancing to music provided by Karoke Craig, http://www.karaokecraig.com/. It's great to see kids of all ages on the dance floor.

The center of the reception was the DELICIOUS food from the folks at RVWCC, topped off with a gorgeous wedding cake from HARTMAN'S KAFFEEHAUS in Round Top and a dessert table to please anyone's sweet tooth.

And along with having 100's of still photos to capture the memories of the day, Maria Elaina and Frank will also have a DVD video provided by Lance Wheeler http://www.lancewheeler.com/
