A Wedding

I'm on fieldwork on the mountains of Tubungan for a month now. Still on ethnographic and historical writing. The deadline for my manuscript is fast approaching.  This explains the "not being able to post in my blog" mode.   I'm writing like tomorrow is the end of the world. And I bet, maybe when the world ends I'm still on my table trying to figure out how to end the last chapter.  Last night,however, was a respite from my busy month.

I went out of my cave to attend the wedding of Dianne and Nonoy.  Both of them works for the National Commission on Indigenous Peoples (NCIP) Region VI and VII  where I also worked as a consultant historian. I haven't been to the office for some weeks now.  It was nice to see happy and familiar faces.  Here's some pictures of the days event.

A lovely afternoon, indeed.
