Please join in, in Congratulating Chris and Jessie Russo

Post by Peter Remling »

This afternoon our fellow Ranger Chris Russo, tied the knot with his lovely bride, Jessica Campbell in a fun wedding on Long Island. As befits a wedding with Scottish decendents the brides' father wore a kilt and the groom, groomsmen and Father of the Bride all wore baskethlited Claymores. At the end on the ceremony Jessie surprised Chris by placing a brown Fedora on Chris' head and they walked out of the church to the Indiania Jones theme song.

Please pardon the pictures (the batteries were dying so I only took a few).

*laughs* As a Trek fan from the 60s I have to admit, 'Live long and prosper' line never occurred to me. LOLOL :)

The Indiana Jones reference is hilarious. :)

Thank you all for the kind words! Mrs. Russo and I thank you all.

Some of you may remember my wife as the girl from last summer's Ranger Canoe Trek. She was our photographer. I have yet to get her to start procuring gear of her own, but I'm working her over.

Much obliged to Pete Remling for the baldrics I and my groomsmen wore! Some more pictures from the wedding:

And, just for fun, a few from the honeymoon.

The Misty Mountains, anyone?

I kept expecting to see the Pillars of the Argonath here.

Thank you all again!

Looks like you two had a wonderful time! Congratulations!

Side note: What is the picture in your signature from? I can't tell if those are your eyes or not, but the picture is awesome!
