On a dark and cool October night, it was naturally music that brought Nathan and I together and, through our shared passion, keeps us together. Nathan and I both happened to regular the same bar in Astoria for several years although we somehow managed to miss each other. I had finished school and moved several times while he was often traveling on tour. One night I happened to be there and I put a particularly unusual and obscure David Bowie song on the jukebox. Nathan approached me asking me if I had played the song, introduced himself, and we've been inseparable ever since!
Finally we found a few days in our travel schedules where we could have a little vacation and booked a getaway near Cape May. We found a tiny hotel and drove down for a long weekend. We woke up on a Saturday morning and before we could get started for the day, Nathan jumped out of bed, grabbed the little box hidden in his luggage, and popped the question. ❤
