Rescued at Sea

So there we all were.................... two photographers, and me.................. and an entire wedding party and a few assorted friends along for the ride. Having a great time on a bridge over a certain body of water in front of a certain St. Louis landmark.

Guess what happens? One of the bridesmaids' bouquets falls OFF the bridge. Bombs away and all that. You can't wade in, it was unreachable. (And I can tell you right dang now, there was no way I was going in!) It became a sort of bridge over troubled waters. (Sorry, couldn't resist!)

And here comes the cavalry! A family, having fun nearby, came over with one of their kids radio controlled boats. A couple circles of the floating bouquet and they brought it to shore. Yay!

There was a bit of moss and a few assorted nasties in the flowers, and they did have a bit of a smell to them, but all things considered--- tragedy averted.

Thanks to the family who came to the rescue, you guys were great!
