#DrewPutARingOnIt
WE'RE GETTING MARRIED!
Things To Do
1. Eat! We love Scratch Bakery, Mango Mangeaux, Sushi King, Pho79, Shaking Crab, etc. You name it, we have it!
2. Enjoy nature: Sandy Bottom park is nearby and provides an opportunity for paddleboating and canoeing as well as a butterfly sanctuary.
3. Take in some local history: Historical sites abound, including Fort Monroe which features a plaque marking the arrival of the first enslaved Africans to the Virginia colony.
