We Officially Have Another Married Couple in the Family


18 years after we met and 14 years after our commitment ceremony, Lee and I officially tied the knot in Fernie, British Columbia. (For those following, it means we now have an official marriage in Massachusetts and California and a civil union in New Hampshire, Vermont, New Jersey and New York.


We gathered before a marriage commissioner at noon on Tuesday at a lodge with one of the most beautiful views in the area. We were joined by four of our Fernie friends and two friends from San Diego.

Our dear friends, Pete from Fernie and Will from San Diego were our witnesses, though everyone present was a witness to an incredible event.


Syd took a few hundred photos, so it will be a few days before we have them all up on a slideshow. I'll also post our vows and my thoughts on the whole wedding thing soon.

After the ceremony we went up to Island Lake Lodge for lunch and had a wonderful day with our friends.



There is much more to report, but we're very excited and very happy about this new moment in our relationship. 18 years and things get better and better!
