On Saturday September 22nd Dan, Amy, and I left Seattle immediately after Dan's MBA seminar and drove 4 and 1/2 hours to Spokane where we spent the night at the historic Davenport Hotel. The next morning we woke up and drove another 1/2 hour to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho to attend the wedding of my dear friend Kara. The wedding took place outside on Lake Coeur d'Alene at the Coeur d'Alene Resort. When we arrived at the resort we hopped on a boat that took us over to the golf course where the wedding was held. Much to our surprise Michael and Kitty Dukakis were on the boat with us. Kara's new husband Nelson worked with Mr. Dukakis as one of his first jobs in politics. Of all the people on the boat Mr. Dukakis walked straight up to Dan, shook Dan's hand, and said "who are you and what are your connections?" Leave it to Dan to hob nob with the Dukakis'. The wedding was absolutely beautiful with a reception immediately following. The food was delicious and I thoroughly enjoyed the special hot chocolate Dan had made for me. Unfortunately, Amy and Dan had to work early the next day. So around 8pm we left the reception and I drove us straight back to Seattle while Dan tried to get a head start on his reading for the first week of classes in the back seat.
