It was her birthday, and we went out for lunch. Her gift was a scrapbook that I made with the last page saying "Will you marry me?" with a picture of the ring. In her words, I wasn't that sneaky. She saw it coming a mile away.
Awesome. I like proposals with an extra touch. I had a high school classmate who had a proposal that was one of those scavenger hunt types.
My fiancee didn't see it coming at all. Even though I recreated the first date detail by detail.
I actually still have to buy an engagement ring.
I used her grandmother's ring from her dad's side for the proposal.
We may be back in the area so I am game!
We have been to a wedding and ceremony at that celebration place. It was a little hard to find from what I remember.The one we went to used the outdoor ceremony area too and it was almost 100. Oh and they did pictures afterwardsand they wouldn't let us into the building. So there was several hundred people standing outside in those conditions after sitting on them for nearly 45 minutes.
Then they did a buffet and we were one of the last tables to be dismissed...nearly an hour after dinner service began. Yeah that was the wedding from hell.
Hopefully it's more entertaining than the game going on there. BORING!!!
I think you're thinking of the old celebration barn....guy with the monies has a barn on his property as well, and rented that out for years, but then it got to be such a thing, the neighbors complained, and of course the county intervened since he didn't have it permitted for that type of activity...he tried to get it all legal and stuff, but the neighbors put up a stink (admittedly, they have a point, those roads aren't set up for the repeated wedding crowd traffic)...so he said eff it, built the two new barns that are right on highway 1.
As well, it could have been another garden that was essentially same deal, started small, then ended up having one every weekend, then neighbors complained, county shut them down.
<edit, it's understandable you wouldn't know all that...I post not to *correct* you, but I find it an interesting story>

This was in late July of 2011. Might have also been confused from the wrong turn I took.
I vaguely remember news stories on that
I saw both a Ford Tempo and an Oldsmobile Omega while driving today. Both are models I had naturally assumed the car crushers had made completely extinct at least fifteen years or more ago. If I'd have seen a Chevette, too, I would have been really worried.
If there were a hall of fame of the worst American made cars, these would be first ballot inductees!

I'd take those out in a farm field and not feel sorry for any damage.
well poop. Just saw on the news that coworker's high school athlete child is done for the rest of the basketball season. Have to go talk to her tomorrow. Hopefully she'll be healthy for the fall and doesn't need to redshirt. Gosh that sucks.
I'm thinking 2011 was the last year he was allowed to hold events at the old barn...a quick search says the new one was listed as 'new' in April, 2012, and there's a Press-Citizen editorial addressing his request to continue operating in 2012 at the old site.
