Preparing for the weekend

While I’m quite used to shooting weddings, this weekend’s event does offer up a unique challenge and that is traveling. I’m not well traveled and aside from jaunts to New York and Illinois, I’ve spent nearly all of my life tucked safely into my Western Pennsylvania hamlet of Friedens. Tomorrow morning we’ll be leaving at about 9am to drive across the very long state of Pennsylvania to shoot a wedding outside of Philadelphia. I’ve never been that far east the thought of a 4 hour drive doesn’t exactly thrill me. But the couple getting married made the prospect so appealing and so much fun that I couldn’t resist taking it. Kriston and Megan are getting married at Aldie Mansion tomorrow afternoon and aside from the drive there, I’m quite excited about their celebration. Wish me luck for the trips out and back.

On some non-business related happenings, tonight is a new episode of Survivor. Last week’s episode was the dreaded “recap” where nothing interesting happens and no one gets voted off. I can’t wait for the show tonight to see what happens. I’m hoping for a merge as my favorite player this season, Ozzie, doesn’t have many friends on Aitu.

I’m a huge fan of reality TV and watch more shows than I care to admit. My favorites are Survivor and The Amazing Race. The rumors are that the next season of TAR will be an All Star/Return of the Racers edition featuring past players. As long as they bring back Colin and Christie, I’ll be happy!
