Fred "Bama" and Shayna "Nerz" met through a mutual friend. Nerz was living in Costa Mesa, CA attending nursing school and Bama was in Florence, AL working as an art director for a fashion company. The odds of us meeting were slim to none. If it weren't for Snapchat and our mutual friend Liz sending a short video clip of Nerz, we would have never connected. Many phone calls, FaceTime chats and a visiting trip or two later, Nerz flew to Tennessee to retrieve her Dixieland Delight so we could begin our cross-country road trip to begin a life in California together.
