How does anyone meet these days? The internet, of course! They were both on OK Cupid and swiped right. He was looking for something casual and she was looking for something long term. They agreed not to meet because they were both looking for different things. At the end of their first conversation Kat wrote, "I get it. If you met me you'd fall in love and that would be the end of it." Two weeks later, Pete wrote Kat saying that they should meet just to see. And that's how their love story began.
Do you want to hike up the tallest mountain in New York? I mean, how does one answer that? So away we went. We hiked for four and a half hours to get to the top of Mount Marcy. We sat down for some lunch and both felt like we could die. He asked, "How long do you want to stay up here?" "I'm good to leave in about 30 seconds," I replied. I knew that we had 4 1/2 hours downhill to go and I didn't want to take too much of a break. We went to an area on the top of the mountain away from everyone and he got down on one knee. I think my answer was, "YES! I'm really excited, I just can't show it because I'm so tired!"
