Mike and Melissa met at work. End of story. Just kidding, sort of. Yes, they did meet at work but Melissa was renting a room from a wonderful person that kept that house way too cold for her and she kept getting colds. So, one day, she went to work and asked if anyone had a room to rent. Mike piped up and said he did. That was the beginning. Melissa moved in on February 29th and helped Mike with his tenant learning curve. They would make dinner for each other and sit for hours talking crap about each other's dates and dating habits. They went out to local bars to see local bands with his friends and quickly became friends themselves. Ah but like all good things, this too had to come to an end because Melissa’s contract was ending and she was going back home to Arizona to a staff position. Once in Arizona though, Mike kept in contact. They would talk for hours on the phone like teenagers, every day or night. Until, Melissa decided that she would take the plunge and travel as a nurse again to Northern California, landing a contract around Vacaville? and “renting” a room from Mike. Mike was so excited to have Melissa back that he just couldn’t hold back; he walked her up to the middle of the property and got down on one knee to propose. Melissa, obviously said yes. These two are like milk and cookies, peanut butter and jelly or even salt and pepper. Mike may speak whatever is on his mind, but Melissa can one-up him with a few words, occasionally rendering Mike speechless. With both of them laughing their booties off and everyone else shaking their heads. There won’t ever be a dull moment in that Dry Creek household!!
