We had crossed paths before, but we officially met in Tahoe when Kevin's Tahoe share house hosted the Beer Olympics. Kevin was on team Russia, wearing a white mock turtleneck and furry black hat. Allison was sick and the sober driver for her house. Despite a severe mismatch in sobriety and Kevin's questionable outfit, we decided to meet up the following weekend, and after that started skiing together in Tahoe. The rest is history!
