On the way home from a wedding last night at the Hotel Marlowe, which by the way, is an absolute beautiful location to have a wedding, I saw this scene that just made me stop. I was pretty tired from the long day but, could see the picture just waiting for me. Here’s what I came up with.
Today was my first wedding of the season at the Hotel Marlowe in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The ceremony and reception were held at the hotel and the Marlowe is an incredible wedding venue. From the staff to the decor, to the ease of access was top notch. Mindy and Jeff are really a fun, enthusiastic couple that really knew how to enjoy life. Enjoy Jamaica Mindy and Jeff!
 
After all the rain we had, it’s beautiful to see the sun, the blue sky, and the flowers with the kiss of light. Is spring finally here? This was shot on my ol’20D with a cool little 50mm 2.5 macro lens. I just love the colors of this shot.
 
I hung out with my sister Christine, my brother in law, Sven, and my mom, Dorothy. My sister lives in LV and my mom drove up from Tucson. My mom was heading up to Washington to explore and maybe make a new home there.
On Saturday, my sis and I went down to the strip so I could take some scenic photographs that I had missed out during the week. We stopped at several locations and we chatted about life. We ended up at the Bellagio where we met Sven for the buffet. The food as usual was excellent. Sven and I pigged out on crab legs. Emm…sooo yummy. Sven was talking about a project he’s involved with called CityCenter. It’s being built next to the Bellagio. Sven is part of the architectual team that’s designing it. I was completely stunned to hear plans of a hotel that didn’t have gaming in it. It makes sense though. Almost everywhere in LV has gaming and there’s nothing that caters to the high end client who doesn’t. CityCenter is planned for completion in the next few years and I can’t wait to come back and see it done. My sister encouraged my to come back and let me know that there’s always a bed open for me when I do.
Sunday was filled with R&R and a bit of shopping for the family. As I was wrapping up I sprinkled stickey notes around the house to let them know how much I appreciated their warmth. It’s just those little things in life that make all the difference. As night fell I drove back to the airport to return the rental car. I checked in, dropped my luggage off, headed through security and waited at the gate. I took the red eye home and arrived in Boston at 8am. It was a long week but, a week like no other.
