After working in a Vagrant VM and making some changes I will suspend the VM using vagrant suspend. If I then restart the host computer and then attempt to run vagrant resume, the terminal sits for a bit and then brings me back to a command prompt without any feedback. So, naturally I then try vagrant ssh, and I receive the following:
VM must be running to open SSH connection. Run
vagrant upto start the virtual machine.
If I run vagrant up, I find that all the changes I made prior to the suspend have been overwriten by the base box import.
Is this intended behavior? I am runny Windows 8 pro x64.

Command: vagrant halt [name|id] This command shuts down the running machine Vagrant is managing. Vagrant will first attempt to gracefully shut down the machine by running the guest OS shutdown mechanism. If this fails, or if the --force flag is specified, Vagrant will effectively just shut off power to the machine.
Command: vagrant resume [name|id] This resumes a Vagrant managed machine that was previously suspended, perhaps with the suspend command. The configured provisioners will not run again, by default. You can force the provisioners to re-run by specifying the --provision flag.
Command: vagrant destroy [name|id] This command stops the running machine Vagrant is managing and destroys all resources that were created during the machine creation process. After running this command, your computer should be left at a clean state, as if you never created the guest machine in the first place.
Once you are done exploring the virtual machine, you can exit the session with CTRL-D.
The idea of vagrant is to use the base box and then make customizations with provisioning methods. So always a vagrant destroy (removes all data of the VM) and vagrant up builts the box again, based on the base box, should work.
Anyways, you did not do a vagrant destroy the data should still be there.
If you did a vagrant suspend that means the boxes state is frozen by Virtual Box.
Next, you should do a vagrant resume: http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/cli/resume.html
But if you did a vagrant up in between, the data might be lost. You could open the VirtualBox GUI and see if there are still some preserved snapshots.
