West for a Wedding

From school last Friday I headed west for about 4 hours through the changing leaves of fall in a truly Canadian landscape of rolling, rocky hills and a 50-50 mix of coniferous to deciduous forest. Very rugged and beautiful (not that I felt like driving at all). Got to Haliburton for the wedding I was an usher at and spent the weekend surrounded by rustic beauty, not-quite strangers and tables groaning with sweets and free booze. Got up to some silliness in our tuxes, danced and ate and drank and then drove home today. I'm glad to be home. Ever been overwhelmed by wonderful events and need to go off and think a bit?
