Our Anniversary

We celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary this past weekend with a short trip away! We started off Saturday morning with a drive along Shenandoah National Park's Skyline Drive. Then we hiked to a great 70 foot cascading waterfall. It was called Dark Hollow Falls and it was beautiful!

We worked up quite an appetite on our hike and stopped for a picnic lunch, but the bugs we just too irritating so we ate in the car. Next stop Luray Caverns! It was extremely crowded as you would expect being that it is the coolest place in Virginia on a Saturday in July. We took our time exploring the caverns and had fun playing tourist!

We stayed at the Mimslynn Inn in Luray, Virginia. It was a beautiful inn that originally opened in 1931. It had recently been renovated and was a wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed an amazing meal in their dining room, swimming and relaxing in the hot tub, and a leisurely walk around the gardens.


We finished out our weekend Sunday with stops at Sharp Rock Vineyards, Christensen Ridge Winery, Burnley Vinyards, and Horton Cellars. It was a great way to end an amazing weekend. It is hard to believe that we have been married for 5 years already. Where has the time gone?
