a trip home

My mother got married last week to her partner of 20 years. I know it was largely a financial decision on her and Bill's part, but it was also very sweet. They had a very small ceremony (just 4 guests) in my grandmother's backyard and then we went out for a nice dinner.

I drove up to Chico for the wedding and drove back here the next day. One good thing about the trip was I was able to take some pictures of rice fields in late summer. Actually, there were so many photos of green fields, I had to start taking pictures of rice elevators. Rice fields are all alike, but rice elevators are each different in their own way.
