Story
The first time I saw him, we were both at a local pub in Caseville. I remember glancing over at him and thinking, Oh, wow, he’s cute! The seat beside me was empty and thought, how awesome would it be if he ended up next to me?
Well, he did. We started talking, and discovered we had a lot in common. We exchanged numbers and went our separate ways. I thought about him often, but eventually he faded into the ‘missed connections’ category. A year later, out of the blue, we randomly met up on Lake Huron. He asked if I'd like to take a quick boat trip to Tawas, stopping at Gravely Shoals Lighthouse and Charity Island. I said yes, and from that point, we haven't looked back.
