Ah, wedded bliss
Hi, we’re Andy Potterf and Denae Potterf. In case you don’t know us, we’re from Eugene, Oregon, USA, and as long as we’ve known each other we’ve shared a serious travel bug. We got married back in September 2008, and two days later we were on a plane to India for our honeymoon. We ended up being gone for seven wonderful months and saw a lot of India and Nepal, sharing some amazing experiences together. We started this blog for our friends and family back home to follow along with what we were doing, and as a kind of journal for ourselves. We hope you enjoy it.
We’re back in the US now, working at a resort in New York state to save up some money for the next adventure. There are still some posts to finish up for the India portion of the blog, which we’re writing as we have time, and keep an eye out for some other additions; we have some photos and writing from previous trips that we’ll try and post. Questions or comments? We love to get emails, so feel free to send them to Andy (andypotterf AT hotmail.com) or Denae (denaeggo AT hotmail.com).
Cheers,
Andy & Denae

Hi you guys!
Your blog is great. I’m so glad you are having this experience. Andy, your writing is amazing; I am enjoying every word. Denae, your emails have been so descriptive as well. Maybe you could include them in a side column or something.
I have been trying to figure out where you are (as I am a map nerd). I found Manali and Keylong on this http://maps.google.com/. Maybe you could hyperlink them to this or another map site?
Wishing you well and happy.
Love,
Carolyn

Macey,
We miss you and everybody else a lot too! We hope you’re having lots of fun at school, do they still have ice cream socials like when I went to school there? We’re very sorry but we won’t be in the country for your birthday; be sure to have lots of fun. Love you, Denae and Andy

Hey you guys,
I miss you and the house feels so empty. I miss Denae making me food and Andy’s loud chip chewing. Hope all is well.
Love, Makenna

Dear Andy & Denae,
Dan gave us your blog address and I wanted to try and get a note to you.
Sorry we couldn’t be at your wedding, we were in Colorado.
Your excursion through India and other parts unknown sounds like an idyllic way to start your married life.
God bless you and keep you and make His face to shine upon you and grant you His peace.
Chris

This is Great! Last week I didn’t even know what a blog was and now I am enjoying yours and writing in it! Your descriptions are wonderful and make it easy to visualize your experiences. Thank you for that! You are lucky to be out of the country during all this political crap. Pray Obama gets in!
Lots of Love to You Two! Glenda

Hey guys, sounds like you two are having a blast. I am jealous that I don’t get to travel around for a few months. It is really cool that you are making this blog and getting to share your experiences with everyone! Tiffany and I hope the rest of your journey is fantastic and that you stay safe. We look forward to meeting up with you when you get back, whenever that may be.
