    Well, THIS is certainly startling news, but at the same time, very good news.

    I think the state of matrimony is absolutely wonderful for other people.

    Congratulations, wherever you are!

    I know captains of ships can perform marriage ceremonies on the high seas........ so does that mean any shelter caretaker or hut master has the same authority?

    Congratulations to them. I bet they're not registered anywhere. It's just as well, it's hard to find hiking gear unless you register at Target, and not much selection there. If they registered at REI, I might send them some Mountain House..... K2

    Fresh spring water and matrimonial vows are well documented to produce offspring within 9 months. Somebody warn them!

    I'm so confused, I'm not sure if I lost my horse or found a rope.
