Summer Wedding

Summer, 2013

Just back from a whirlwind weekend in Western Pennsylvania at a high school friend's wedding. It was at the gorgeous Bedford Springs Resort, a property that dates to around 1806. It was a sprawling place, surrounded by long porches and set in the mountains near a pretty little Victorian town, and we had lots of good food and perfect weather and a half day by the pool.

It's funny to think of all the places that we've been for weddings and the associated parties. Off the top of my head, I can think of Selma, Alabama; Atlanta; Laguna Beach; Seattle; Austin; Spokane, Washington; Kiawah Island; South Carolina; Ithaca, New York; Scottsdale, Arizona; Boston; Washington, D.C (several times); Vermont; New Hampshire (twice); Paris; Scotland; Prague; Tipperary; Ireland; New Jersey; Westchester; NY; Maine (many times); New York (many times) and now Bedford Springs; Pennsylvania. I'm counting at LEAST 30 weddings in the last 8 years, but I'm sure there are a few I'm forgetting (eeek!)

The madcap wedding circuit seems to be slowing down for us just a little bit now, but it's been such a fun way to see places in the U.S. we might never have found our way to otherwise.
