In Early May we finally exchanged phone numbers, and he called me right away. We talked for hours. We were both planning on going to the Corvette Cruise-in in just a couple weeks, and agreed we'd finally meet then. Those weeks crept by, and we talked every day until then. When I finally got to the museum, I texted him, and he was already back at the hotel with everyone else on the forum - I'd just missed him. I had uncontrollable butterflies in my stomach. I finally made it over to the Hampton Inn (THE place for Cruise In action)....and there he was. I still remember that moment like it was yesterday.
.....I moved to Tennessee that August.
We've had our ups and downs, just as everyone does. I'm proud to say that I still feel for him the way I felt when I saw him for the first time. I feel lucky we met there, where everyone had a camera, and we have photos of us from the first day we met. Although not the 'cutest' pics, since after all - it was just a big party full of Corvette Enthusiasts!
and here is our ever so romantic first pic together..
...and the following weekend when I drove up to Nashville for our first real 'date'.
Both of our vettes at the local Cruise Night:
We've had so many great times together, and I really feel blessed to have him in my life. Those of you who have known me for a while, know what I've been through in the past. I didn't think I'd find happiness like this, and some days I still think I don't deserve it.
Rob - I love you. Thanks for being so great......you and your crazy afro wig, peep loving, bacon addicted self.
Awww...too sweet.
