A chance meeting a few years earlier became a crush a few years later. A couple drinks to build up the courage sparked a relationship to start a new year.

Back and forth over the Taylor-Southgate, Blind Lemon to New Riff and many places in between. Cooking, Volleyball, Vinyl, The Puzzle. Uncertain what the future would hold but certain that it would be together.

Career conscious, yet determined to merge our lives despite the miles apart. It took some creativity to stay in sync, but each year brought us a little closer.
