We first "matched" on 4/21/2015 and spent the next several days chatting. A date to meet was set and I remember Briant calling me prior because he "Wanted to let me know something". I thought, uh-oh, here we go... I was imagining some awful news, but he just wanted to let me know that he had broken his leg, and had a full leg cast. I was like "And".... Poor man was worried that would make me not want to go on our date, and I said "So, it's not like you'll be in a cast forever". We met at a pub in Port Orchard on 4/23/2015 for our first date, and Briant hopped around the pool table to shoot pool with me for several hours. I thought, what a trooper! We were pretty much inseparable from that day forward. We share a lot of the same views about people and the world, which makes compatibility come easy. We became the best of friends and more... Briant moved to Bremerton (my home town), a couple of months after we met, and the search for a forever home began. Once we found the perfect home, we spent months making it even more beautiful, and truly enjoy our little oasis with our adorable little dog; Harper.
