If you haven’t heard, Emily and I got engaged on November 7th while on vacation at Herrington Manor.

Our weekend was amazing; relaxing in an old log cabin with a wood burning stove, hiking in the autumn leaves, and walking through the mud of a drained lake. Herrington Manor and Swallow Falls have always had a special place in my heart but even more so now.

I’m super excited to begin planning a life with her. Though, I didn’t expect to be planning the wedding so quickly! After searching about 20 venues and realizing no one had any openings for next fall we realized the importance of making plans and setting a date now. No luck finding anything yet. But I have hopes we’ll find something soon.

I went to Herrington Manor, a place I’ve been vacationing since I was a kid last weekend/early this week. In addition to biking in the mountains and fishing in the lake, I went white water rafting with my family in Ohiopyle on the Lower Yough. The rapids weren’t quite as dangerous as I expected but the trip was still quite thrilling. We did the touristy thing and had pictures taken:
