I wanted to post some pictures from our honeymoon trip to Montreal, Toronto, and places in between. This group is from our drive up through the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Adirondacks.
We left on a Friday evening after work, and got as far as Chattanooga. Saturday we worked our way to the Blue Ridge Parkway. We ate lunch at this hotel/country restaurant, where we picked up some really offensive Christian comics that we took turns dramatically reading to each other during the car ride. We stayed in a small college town called Salem, had a nice dinner, took a walk downtown, and happened across an old-time music jam.
Sunday we drove through Shenandoah National Park, and everything was beautiful and in bloom. It was like time traveling back into Spring. On the way up, unfortunately I had to finish up applying to grad school, so we didn’t adventure much. We stayed the night outside of Hersey, PN and Dave picked up a pizza, while I worked on essays.
Monday was Memorial Day, and we drove through Scranton (for Dave’s Office love) and ate lunch at some town Joseph Smith got kicked out of. Our hotel for the evening was near Albany and we got a sweet swanky room upgrade, and the hotel had a very nice indoor pool. To celebrate me being finished with grad school crap, we ate at an overpriced steak house with creepy stuffed bears placed every where.

Yankee azaleas blooming.
On Tuesday we drove through the Adirondacks, and stopped for a few hours to eat lunch and ride horses through the mountains. It was a sweet little surprise Dave worked out.
It was an old mill town with a rapid stream running the length of the town.
This is the place we stopped to ride at. Pretty river and mountains.
Dave meeting the barn pony.
I am riding Gizmo. Dave had to inform the guy at the barn that I did not get this Gremlins joke. They were both so disappointed in me.
Dave doing some horseback photography of Copper. He kept letting his horse stop and eat so they would have to trot to catch up with us. Every time I would look back, Cooper was getting a big ole mouth full of grass.
Next stop Canada!
