Well, this is truly uncanny and I must say a first! It seems that I have two couples with identical proposals. And the thing that’s borderline freaky-weird is the fact that both of the guys sprinted up the two mile hike to the waterfall, left their gals winded, and proposed. Nervous boys?? So it is,...

Little did Jenna know the day she hit the trail with her high-speed boyfriend, Tim, that at the trail’s end it would give way to a gorgeous ring being placed on her finger. Jenna had told me about their romantic bar meeting amongst casual friends and how it evolved into a full blown relationship as we navigated our...
