Carol and Jeremy share a quiet moment during the presentation to the Mother.



We have a big group church photo on the steps of the church and i turn around to head for the water fountain and this guy is standing there watching the whole production, bemused probably, and the colors matched the wedding, so I snapped his photo. ;+)



The start of our jaunt through Lincoln Park Zoo. ;+)






I dont know what he was saying to Jeremy but it was probably not a lie. ;+)

They stop for a moment near the underwater seals
