My wife’s school gala was last weekend… on a boat! A yacht to be precise. This yacht:

The WSU Law School Gala was on the Ovation in the Detroit River this year. My wife’s friend’s parents were kind enough to take us to Detroit so we could avoid having to drive home, which allowed me to sample several gin gimlets in glasses of various sizes, which allows me to recall that this was the route we sailed:

It got really weird when we were sailing up the Edsel Ford (at least I think it was the Edsel Ford), but all in all the gala was excellent and we had a grand time. Here’s a picture of my wife looking radical and my goatee looking like it’s trying to escape from my face.

Also, in an act of what can only be described as un-ironic irony, they played “I’m on a Boat” not once, but twice, while we were on. the. boat.
