Trudi and I just got back from a weekend in South Lake Tahoe. Our godson, Tony Fachner, son of Trudi's lifelong pal Karla Fachner and husband Randy, was married in a lakeside ceremony, and we were priviledged to be there to celebrate with them. We're proud of Tony. Things are really coming together for him.
It was a very sweet wedding with a whole lot of celebrating wrapped around it. And they chose the location well. The beauty of Lake Tahoe is truly inspiring. The evening before the wedding, Trudi and I went to dinner at 19 Kitchen, a restaurant on the 19th floor of Harveys with a fabulous view of the lake. Here's a photo of the sunset.What struck me most about the weekend was how timeless good friendships are. With good friends, even if you've been apart for a while, you don't have to get reacquainted; you just pick up right where you left off. Where the first words out of your mouth aren't "It's been ages! Tell us what you've been up to," (though that comes later) but simply "Hi! What can I get you to drink?"
That's how it is with Karla and Randy. We can talk about anything with equal ease, from light stuff like movies, jokes and pop culture to serious stuff like politics, faith, and personal highs and lows.
We're planning to get together again soon. And when we do, it'll be like we never left. How cool is that?
