Southwest Airlines is now accepting reservations for June. As one of the largest carriers to Providence, there are several flights daily, typically from the smaller airport in a given area (Midway, for Sarah's family, and Hobby, for Greg's Houston posse). If you prefer to fly into Boston, you may be able to find reasonable rates on AirTran.

Sarah fully intends to have the invitations in the mail by mid-March, but we all know where good intentions can lead you. In the meantime, check out the newly-updated Event page for marginally more detailed information than was there previously.

The 2007 Cape Cod Baseball League schedule has been released, and the Chatham A's have home games on Friday, June 22 (versus the Harwich Mariners) and Saturday, June 23 (hosting the Falmouth Commodores), both starting at 7 pm. "Wooden bat league" baseball is just about the best little slice of Americana a person can stand, and we won't be hurt if you sneak out of concurrent wedding events to catch a few innings. Not too many, though, or you'll be overcome by the quaintness.

With the possible exception of flowers, all of the big wedding and reception plans are in place, so it's time to obsess about little things. Hooray! Actually, the current project is arranging the ceremony music, which is no small thing, so when music burnout sets in, fussing about ribbon widths and such makes for a nice change.

Since last we updated this section, Greg has made honeymoon reservations for a two-week cruise around the Baltic Sea. Leaving from Dover, we'll visit Oslo, Gdansk, St. Petersburg, Helsinki, Stockholm, Tallinn, Visby, Warnemunde (a port city between Hamburg and Berlin), and Copenhagen. The Field Band has graciously changed its schedule all summer to accommodate us (and to send the band to the prestigious Edinburgh Military Tattoo, but we'll keep thinking it was for us).
