Lots of happenings around these parts. We’ve made it back in time for a big wedding shoot this weekend in Bloomington but only by way of Virginia, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, and Kentucky! First, in Blacksburg, Virginia, we got to see our baby goddaughter who is infinitely cuter than any kid you know!
Our trip continued to Northern Pennsylvania where we did what I can only assume to be normal Northerly things: going to the weekly Friday fish fry and eating funnel cake at the Wal-Mart parking lot carnival. 
The North is not all about fried things and is, in fact, astoundingly beautiful. We hiked through some of the Alleghany National Forest where we learned about the dangers of Emerald Ash Borers.
We retreated from the Pennsylvania wild to the weekend retreats of Western New York including Midway, an (anti)quaint(ed) little theme park, and Bemus Point, a beautiful lake town.
Our return to the Pennsylvania wilderness was met with consternation thanks to Mother Nature and questionable decision making.
Before driving back, we managed to make time to see the Zippo/Case museum where I got my first ever Zippo lighter.
We’re looking forward to relaxing a bit in Bloomington and will have lots for the blog: a wedding, some more baby photos, and a sweet promo.
