After many months of failing to find a girlfriend in Seattle, Jonathan and Claire matched on OkCupid with an unbelievable 98% compatibility rating. It was an exhausting search for Jonathan. For Claire…it was her first day on the website. On their first date, Claire took Jonathan's breath away with a 6-mile run around Green Lake. He tried to keep the conversation going, but was primarily gasping for air. After the run Jonathan suggested ice cream, but Claire shut him down. Assuming another loss, Jonathan limped back to wallow in his apartment. But to his surprise, Claire invited him to dinner the very next day. That night, Claire knew Jonathan was a keeper when he showed her his cool high powered laser pointer, illuminating/harassing various skyscrapers in the city.
Claire, Jonathan, and their border collie Theo are max-performing Alaska with weekly flying, backcountry skiiing, mountain biking, and fishing adventures. Jonathan persuades Claire to ski bigger lines and take higher jumps. Claire is a persistent voice of reason that reins Jonathan back from terrible decisions. Meanwhile, Theo encourages both of them to throw his frisbee. Right now, please.
Following the wedding, Jon, Claire and Theo will be spending one last summer in Alaska before moving to Edwards Air Force Bar in November. They are excited for their great Alaskan adventure to end on a high note with another party in Homer!
