We went camping at Gifford Pinchot Park for our honeymoon!
There were only a handful of other families there, but no where near us so we had a nice quiet space.
Our first day there I wanted to go canoeing desperately, but when we got to the shop a sign said they were only open on the weekends. Disappointed we walked back to the car, before we got there though the shop owner saw us and stopped us. He said he would open it up so we could go boating for a couple of hours. SWEET!
Later that night we caught up on our reading, with Pierre even reading to me when I got too tired (rad!)
When our tummies began to rumple we realized that neither one of us really knows how to make a decent fire.
We ate steamed garden burgers, not as tasty as we were hoping.
When it got dark out we busted out our awesome headlights. I will admit when Pierre purchased them I mocked him, loudly. He was completely right, they were super rad!
They even had a 'nightvision' setting!!!!!
The next morning we went to a local diner for breakfast...it was awkward with the local waitress making it clear we weren't a priority. We didn't linger after we finished eating.
We wondered around during the afternoon, really enjoying everything we were surrounded by.
Later we drove around ending up in Lancaster, and saw some awesome art.
Realizing that without a decent fire we aren't really able to cook, we went to the Lancaster Brewing Co. and stocked up on a variety of beers we have never tried, then ended up at an awesome crab place.
By the way, those bug repellent candles SUCK. I was eaten alive and I will seek revenge on any mosquito that ever comes my way again....
We had an awesome time and were really able to enjoy each other. It was the perfect answer to a dreamlike perfect wedding ceremony. Pierre summed it up perfectly when he said, "Shame on us for not coming here sooner.", and when he said " We have been alone all week together and we still like each other, this is awesome." :) If our marriage is even half as awesome as the wedding and honeymoon were, we are in phenomenal shape.

P.S. Wedding pictures should be up shortly!
