evening shadows

At this simple Catholic church  right in town, I watched Ted Kennedy Jr. walk out with his bride 20 years ago. I wonder if they started the Block Island wedding industry, which now keeps many of us busy for the month of June. I have stopped accepting wedding parties at the houses—too many people and too many showers—but accept sedate older parties, like this year's mothers and fathers. At least I hope they'll be sedate—we'll know soon enough!
