One week after I proposed to Jill we went to Arches National Park and Mesa Verde Together.
We had a great hike together up to Delicate Arch.

Antietam, Gettysburg, & Harper's Ferry-Sept, 2007
In September of 2007, I went back East again. This time my main purpose for going was to go to Antietam National Battlefield for the anniversary of the battle. I would be able to do two three-hour hikes with rangers while I was there. It was a great experience.

The Dunker Church & Monuments at Antietam.
This was one of my favorite pictures I took on this trip. It shows the Sunken Road at Antietam where a huge part of the battle was fought.
