I hide inside jw, the heat with humidity wipes me out. Over 85 degrees and I start being affected by it, always been that way. Guess I should live in alaska, but couldn't handle the dark winters lol

I guess I like the warmer weather because I feel good at temps around 80 and 85 and it just feels right .The bones as they get older don't like cold weather .Give me heat as long as it is not around a 100 degrees with high humidity I'm fine .You can hide out inside in the air conditioned space .

I love the Biltmore! We went there for our honeymoon. To bad for us the azaleas were not blooming at the time, but it was still beautiful. We have two beautiful parks here in Fort Wayne. Lakeside park has the beautiful rose gardens and large natural pond. We had our engagement pictures done there. And Foster park is huge has a golf course and playground and what they call the "bridal glen" where all the beautiful plantings are. Our wedding photos were there. We also have a citywide trail called the River Greenway which follow the rivers that flow through and meet here too. I don't have any pictures of that though. I think it is 10-15 mile loop, but not sure, it may be bigger. Sorry my pics are all mushy ;-)

JW it is. Their photographer got some really unique shots.I'm not sure how he managed to get all of them jumping, but he did. My youngest daughter is the MOH and my son is on the very end. Of course you can't see his face. LOL It was a great day!

Thanks everyone! PL - super cute pic! We had some fun candid photos too, but never did the jumping one! The ground at the park was soaked from all the rain we had been getting and I wasn't about to try to jump wearing 4" heels! LOL, as clumsy as I am I would have killed myself for sure! We also had a September wedding, will be 5 years this year. I love fall colors although not my favorite season for weather!
