On a chilly December night, Lynda and her gals were out for a regular 25 cent Tuesday at the Sundance. At the other end of the bar, Patrick and his buddy Brian were out for drinks, catching up after Patrick’s long trip in Texas. Patrick, being a good looking guy, caught Lynda’s eye and she asked him to dance. The rest of the night was spent twirling around the dance floor, taking shots with foreigners and Lynda and Patrick getting lost in conversation. Lynda left with a business card from Patrick and he went home with a $100 cab ride. The rest is history!

After seven years of dating, Lynda was antsy to get hitched! Patrick and Lynda made last minute travel plans to Blackhawk to celebrate their anniversary. They dropped Charlie off at the grandparent's house and Patrick began taking a 'back road' to Blackhawk where they actually ended up at Lookout Mountain just before sunset. Lynda, being used to Patrick taking alternative routes to avoid traffic, didn't suspect anything until Patrick began reminiscing about the day they met 7 years before. Patrick got on one knee and asked Lynda to be his wife!
