IT WAS an idyllic setting as Mayor Earl Oslrander wed Arlene Buckley in. a magnificent outdoor wedding at Lou Lambert's manse and vast Delaware bayshore estate. '1000 Summers". *A notable sprinkled guest list was_ present as wedding vows were exchanged with strutting peacocks strolling the well manicured lawns as swans and ducklings swam atop the private lake.
