Super Moon to Honeymoon

Finally it has all come and gone.

Melissa and I planned and executed what felt like the perfect wedding, we survived a 5 day jaunt across the state of Montana for our honeymoon, and we have completely ran out of room in our apartment with the inclusion of all the stuff we received as gifts.

The wedding day itself was watched over by what the news has been calling the 'Super Moon.'  This is the annual full moon where the distance between our lunar satellite and the Earth is at its shortest.  Take what you want from this; fertility, good luck, or aliens; to me it was mostly just bright and beautiful.

My bride looked stunning, I looked OK, and if I had the chance to do it over again I wouldn't change a thing, nor would I ever do it over again because throwing a wedding in this day and age is an enormous pain in the ass.

We cleaned up and packed out, heading to destinations such as Butte, Chico Hot Springs  and Virginia City.  Here are a couple of my favorite photos from the trip.

 An awesome shot of one of the many amazing stalagmites found therein.

 Our rustic and century old cabin we stayed 2 nights at in Nevada City.

Some escargot, which was delicious.

I was also pulled over by the Montana Highway Patrol for the first time ever on our way home yesterday for speeding (I am almost always guilty of this when on the road).  The nice young man gave me a warning as a wedding present.  Thank you officer Luke Burson.
