This is my husband, my best friend and the love of my life.*s* I met Alan of all places through the internet. If you had asked me prior to meeting him what I thought about internet relationships you would have certainly gotten a different answer than the one I would give today.*grin*

Alan is one of the most honest and caring people I know. I think that's what drew me to him in the beginning. We met online in May of 1997 and finally met in person in October of that year when I flew to Canada from California. I'll admit to being very nervous when the plane landed in Halifax. And it didn't help when I got off the plane and found he wasn't waiting at the gate for me. "Oh the thoughts that were going through my head then." After frantically trying to locate him I found out that in Canada even on Domestic flights no one but passengers are allowed in the gate areas.

But the trip from then on was a perfect one. Alan was all I had hoped he would be and all I knew he would be. Enough so that we were married on July 11th, 1998.*s* There was no doubt as to which country we would live. I promised him one winter in the snow and he would hate me.*grin* So we reside in "Sunny" California just about 80 miles south of San Francisco.

My love for Alan grows with each passing day. He touches my heart, fills me with happiness and makes my spirit soar. Our life together is a beautiful journey..... a journey we will always share and move forward in together.*smile*
