Ros read out the proposed invitation for the July 16th event, and everyone else listened and pondered. Clockwise: Ros, Russell, Jack, David (smiling!).
Of course, much of the evening was devoted to planning for the wedding of these two, Russell and Jane.
She does "wear purple" and is so active and such a great sport.

At the end I think someone was relieved the trip went well...
The bike paths are really quite nice, especially when tree lined.
Then we cycled back to Trout Lake via the Slocan Street bike path. The trip was without much incident... only three of us fell off our bikes at different times (Johnny, Jane's brother; Marie; and me).
Here's the City of Vancouver's picture of the park. Weddings are allowed almost anywhere - stand-up weddings, that is.
The opinions of the mothers, Ros and Marie, were of great interest to Jane and Russell.
So we discussed how we could have a wedding party of about 100 or so on the site... where we'd put the bicycles, have the blessing, and so forth.
We came to Burrard View Park, which overlooks Burrard Inlet and the North Shore Mountains.
North through East Vancouver we went - from Trout Lake Community Centre along the Lakewood Drive bicycle route - about four kilometres
On Saturday, a group of 12 cyclists led by Russell and Jane cycled to a park where Russell and Jane may have a wedding blessing ceremony on July 15.
