Camping

Last year for Jeremy's birthday I got him all set up to go camping - with a tent, sleeping bag, chairs, pots and pans, etc. This weekend we finally got to use all our gear - we headed out to Shenandoah National Park to camp over the Labor day long weekend. We couldn't have picked a better weekend to go - the weather was absolutely perfect and the park was amazing! We took the dogs along with us and, much to our surpise, they were actually pretty well behaved! In fact, we think that they were among the better behaved dogs there. It was so nice to just sit around reading and staying warm in front of the fire. We also hiked a little - we did a 1.7 mile hike the Saturday we arrived, and then a 4 mile hike on Sunday. The hike we did on Sunday took us out to Rapidan Camp, which is where President Hoover used to go to relax and unwind. Here are the photos!

And that's about all that we've been doing this last week or so. Jeremy starts his new job in two weeks, which is very exciting. We've been researching houses on the internet, and hopefully will go talk to the bank and to a realtor sometime soon (fingers crossed!).

Oh, and I've decided that for our one year anniversary/honeymoon (since we didn't get to have a honeymoon after our wedding in Australia) Jeremy and I are going here (Bora Bora). Pretty sweet huh!?
