Berto made me a bit nervous today. He was to serve as the music DJ at the wedding, and well, he was (rightfully) preoccupied with Karissa and Emma. He and Mondo managed to load and transport the sound equipment to the church, in my van, by 1:00. Whew!
The wedding didn't start quite at the announced 2:00, but that wasn't really a surprise in this Salinas Latino culture. Besides, the late start gave Poli more time for more last minute deep breaths. He was handsome, Essie was beautiful, and other than me forgetting to prompt the couple to exchange a kiss, the ceremony went fine.
Lidia and I enjoyed meeting and acquainting ourselves with Mack Stewart, Essie's father. Perhaps this can be the beginning of a new friendship, in spite of the distance.
