Anniversary

March 11, 2012

Our long-ago decision to marry in March was premised on the preservation of summer.  Jim reasoned that weekends in July or August were better spent outdoors, preferably sailing, and that he did not want anyone missing one of Newfoundland's rare fine days on our behalf.  His views on summer weddings have not changed one iota since then.

An unexpected benefit of marrying in winter is that March is a wonderful time to travel where the climate is warm and we don't have to haul on heavy coats, boots, gloves and hats to go to our anniversary dinner.  This year we celebrated at Restaurant Lupita in Patzcuaro, where we were surrounded by colourful walls displaying local artworks.





All pieces except the metal sculptures are made from 'found materials', in most cases incorporating inexpensive craft items such as woven mats and fans.


Wonder where we'll be in 2013.
