You may now kiss the bride

Today I'm thankful for ...

... being able to attend a friend's wedding. He and I worked together at our last company and due to unfortunate circumstances we all were disbanded. But he and I stayed in touch and today he got married! He looked totally nervous but he and his now-wife made it through. I got a chance to meet her and she sounds like a great person. Hopefully I'll see them again in a few weeks when they're back in the area.

Wait, we're there?!

Today I'm thankful for ...

... short plane flights. I flew into Canada today and the whole 800-mile trip took a mere 1 hour 40 minutes. This compared to 16+ hours of driving. While I'd love to drive up to Canada one of these days, I'm not crazy about sitting in a car that long. I'd probably take a long, scenic route if I went by car.
