November 28, 2008…

Among the dozens of people braving the cool, damp 32 degree weather in Niagara Falls of Ontario, our two protagonists were venturing along their way from Clifton Hill to the waterfalls. Just clearing the American Falls view, out from depths of the gorge came forth a beautiful fireworks display.

In the light from the fireworks directly in front of them, our valiant male turned around the lady, and with all of his verbal skill from 31 years of being on the planet, mustered to ask (with ring in hand) “Would you like to marry me?”

Completely surprised, our fair maiden (who couldn’t see the ring because of the darkness) responded, “Are you being serious?” Clearly, the magic was in the air as the fireworks continued to ring out above them.

A quick reply of “Very serious” and then a “YES!!!” our protagonists became officially engaged.
