Where it all began

Another first!
Alexander Salmon started his swimming career yesterday. At half past five here at Angels Swimming School, in the Cape Peninsula suburb of Retreat, he entered the solar heated swimming pool. The sun reflected sharply off his bright yellow one piece swim suit. No worries, no crying. He took to it like a duckling to water. Splish splash. Await the second lesson this Wednesday, same time.

Spring Wedding Surprise!


 Twelve Bar Blues song:


 'Woman raise your right hand
And swear that you'll be true
I said raise your right hand, baby
and wear that you'll be true
Say you'll be a good woman to me
Like the real good man I been to you'
....(turnaround)

from 'Blues in the Dark'
Music: Count Basie, Lyrics: Jimmy Rushing)






So Nikki sprang this - rather pleasant - surprise on us! It probably wasn't intended to be a surprise, just a lightning romance that suddenly sprang into being. Good, Look at the pictures and you can see the joy on her face (as well as on Bevan's) - we all could sure use some of that in our lives.

The ceremony took place at Grassy Park Baptist Church in Second Avenue.

Pictures are not necessarily in chronological order.....

The usual suspects...


























































































































































Mirror, mirror on the wall....
You're in for a BIG surprise here













































Jamie is so beautiful...
(When she's not sticking out her tongue at me, that is!)
