There was a single independent woman, Marissa, that needed a break from the corporate world so she decided to bartend at the local neighborhood bar and restaurant, Clancy’s, for a bit.

In that time, there was a single independent man, Johnathon, who happened be Clancy’s IT guy. And was setting up a new TV/entertainment experience there that took some time to create and get working.

Let’s just say the two didn’t get off on the right foot. They had both sworn off relationships and were both very content in their lives with their dogs.

After Johnathon would be done with his job for the day he would stay for lunch and hang out when he discovered we were both slightly loud (just a tidge), Italian, and had a love for food.

Later on In this time, Johnathon was doing a lot of traveling
Just as he said when we got engaged he got down on 1 knee and…

“Last year, I thought I had the best year, I traveled to a new city or country every month celebrating turning 50. I traveled far. But there was always one constant, everywhere I went I always came back home and to someone that has become my best friend, and my partner.

In essence I traveled the world to find someone and she was here the whole time.”
