We got engaged on August 17th, 2019 during our hike in Hocking Hills. I could tell Thomas was up to something as he was being very territorial over his backpack he brought with him. During our last hike, he asked to stop at a scenic spot overlooking the trees however, a small group of people were right behind and stopped at the same spot where we were. I could tell Thomas was getting flustered as they were not leaving. After a few minutes, once the group had finally left, Thomas got down on one knee and asked me to marry him! Someone from the group that was now a little ahead of us, heard us cheering in excitement, came back to apologize for stopping at our spot, and offered to take our picture.
