About Us

Gator and I met in September of 1993 at the Landmark Tavern in Tenino. The band "Flipside" was playing and I was dancing. He asked my friend Tina who the girl with the long hair was. My friend called me over when the dance ended and introduced us. I sat down in the booth with Tina and Gator and towards the end of the evening when I had my fill of alchohol I tapped him on the shoulder, when he turned his head I kissed him and then got up and walked home. At the time I was famous for just walking out when I was too drunk! LOL He had really long hair and a long beard at the time. That was Friday night. On Sunday, we had planned on going for a motorcycle ride. He showed up with hair cut above his ears and no beard! He was going to visit his mom in Oregon and wanted to suprise her. It was a shock... but I guess I had to see who I was getting involved with! After about a week of seeing each other every day, I remember sitting with Gator at the counter in Joe's place in Bucoda and he was holding my hand. I asked him how long he wanted to hang out and he said "is forever too long?" We have been together ever since! For the first year he was driving truck and I was in college and we did Karaoke on the side. After I graduated he quit trucking and we did the karaoke 6 nights a week. We've been together 24/7 ever since...
