While Tushar claims that he saw me at the bar, came over and talked to me, I maintain that I made the first move. Having noticed him earlier at the party, I wanted to get his attention and decided to walk into him...repeatedly. We'll never agree on how things transpired that night, but we've been together ever since.

We stumbled upon the Pulgas Water Temple while hiking to the Crystal Springs Reservoir 4 years ago. Enthralled by the beauty of the place, we spent hours there enjoying each other's company and forgot all about the hike. Tushar took me back there early in the morning, saying "It's a surprise!". He even blind-folded me in the car so I wouldn't know where we were headed. In front of the water temple, he got down on one knee and asked me to spend the rest of our lives together! Almost speechless, I mumbled a "YES!" and we were engaged!
