Amazing as it seems, Cory Davidson is getting married!
Because of the travel involved, we got up early and I had
Jane
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0001
take this picture of me
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0002
and then one of my tie
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0003
and another of me
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0004
as I watched Ben
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0005
as he watched television
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0006
and the new cell phone
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0007
that Suzanne
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0008
intended to bring on the train
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0009
as we passed into Newark
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0010
and missed the photo op for all the police on the train platform
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0011
as the train
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0012
got close to our first destination and I made progress on the crossword puzzle
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0013
even as we emerged and the protesters
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0014
were then as Suzanne went to get coffee
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0015
in the store that sold pizza
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0016
in addition to donuts. I took a long shot
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0017
and then chatted with the information men
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0018
as Suzanne positioned herself in the waiting room
so that I could get pictures of the 2 girls behind her with great braids
and amazing tattoos.
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0019
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0020
Maybe in my next life, I will be able to just ask if I can take pictures
of the tattoo'ed arm.
Then Suzanne
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0021
and I
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0022
were back on the train through Long Island
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0023
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0024
until we came to Babylon
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0025
and after the first 2 stops
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0026
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0027
got off at Green River
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0028
where we waited in the little shed
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0029
by the track
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0030
for a long time
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0031
hoping that our cab would really arrive.
Once it did, we got to the wedding and Suzanne and Judy posed
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0032
before Dr Len
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0033
and Cory appeared
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0034
as we made our way past the tables
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0035
to the waiting area where Suzanne
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0036
and Joyce
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0037
chatted as Jim
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0038
and Sharon Heitt
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0039
and then both together
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0040
appeared even as Joyce
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0041
was joined by her daughter
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0042
and they posed together
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0043
while I showed off self portraiture
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0044
and then posed for pictures with Dr Len
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0045
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0046
as Doug Frankel
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0047
Jerry
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0048
and Ronnie
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0049
appeared and Dr Len posed with this friend
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0050
as the groomsmen showed me the fans
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0051
to Jerry's amusement
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0052
and the ceremony proceeded
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0053
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0054
until we could congratulate the proud parents
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0055
and then join the crowds in the food line
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0056
so that I could have this plateful of food
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0057
and this napkin
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0058
and admire the center piece
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0059
as Suzanne's food
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0060
amused Joyce and her daughters
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0061
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0062
while I made my way to the bar
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0063
and joined the crowds
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0064
waited for pina coladas
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0065
as mine was worth waiting for
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0066
once I drank it.
This inspired me to take a picture of Larry
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0067
and Karen
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0068
Mitch and his wife
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0069
and Larry and Jerry
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0070
before we sat down with Tracy and Jackson
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0071
for dinner. It took a number of tries to get a good picture of
Karen and Larry
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0072
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0073
but finally I did
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0074
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0075
as the others at the table
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0076
got ready to watch the wedding party assemble
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0077
as the tour guide
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0078
led them onto the floor
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0079
even as Larry took this picture of my tie
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0080
and the grandparents entered
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0081
followed by the bride's parents
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0082
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0083
and the groom's
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0084
and the matched sets of groomsmen and bridesmaids
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0085
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0086
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0087
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0088
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0089
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0090
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0091
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0092
until the bride and groom came forth
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0093
and the bride
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0094
showed her smile even as I admired the table decorations
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0095
and Doug Frankel
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0096
cheered them on as the chairs were lifted
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0097
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0098
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0099
and the challah was blessed
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0100
so that we could begin our meal
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0101
and I could make my way to the buffet to provide the prop
for this food picture
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0102
as the Heitt's ate away
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0103
and my food looked good
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0104
as the groom's mom
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0105
toured our table and we blessed the challah
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0106
as the groom's dad
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0107
toured our table and we all
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0108
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0109
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0110
kept at our food
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0111
and bread
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0112
even as Tracy and Jackson
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0113
seemed to get serious about more food
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0114
Suzanne put umbrellas in her hair
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0115
and the Aaron posed with his folks
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0116
as Mitch decided to do the costume thing
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0117
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0118
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0119
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0120
in a variety of fashions. The cake appeared
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0121
and this groomsman (whose name I forgot)
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0122
took these pictures of us
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0123
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0124
as the groom's cake
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0125
as we prepared to eat the wedding cake
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0126
and then said good byes
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0127
so that we could head back to the station
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0128
where the sign
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0129
told us that we were in the place with the forbidding waiting room
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0130
as Suzanne
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0131
looked partied out as we made our way through Babylon
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0132
back home where our car
../../../Sabbat/2004/08.29.04CoryDavidsonWedding//IMG_0133
was waiting to take us home at the end of a wonderful day.
Good luck -- Tara and Cory!
