Here’s Nancy and Scott’s story . . .
“Last February I took my then-boyfriend, Scott, to the Turks & Caicos. We traveled to one of the smaller islands, North Caicos, for a week’s vacation to celebrate his 50th birthday. After we arrived at our small hotel we enjoyed a delicious lobster dinner with a complimentary bottle of champagne that awaited us. After dinner we went for a walk on the completely empty, moonlit beach. It was so lovely. We walked about a quarter mile enjoying the sights and sounds of a tropical night before taking a seat on the beach. The moon was full, accompanied by Jupiter high in the sky. Scott took a moment to kneel down in front of me, pulled a jewelry box out of his pocket and said, ‘With Jupiter as my witness, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?’ Of course I said yes! And because the beach was empty, we stripped off our clothes off and baptized our union in the ocean right then and there. It was wonderful.
Our story is even more romantic than this, though. Scott and I were on the gymnastics team together in high school. He had a major crush on me. At the time, I told him that I ‘liked’ him, but I didn’t ‘like like’ him.
It took twenty-five years and an email out of the blue from me to him to get us together and realize that we’re soul mates. I’m a very lucky girl.”
