22 years ago Emily and I were supposed to be hiking across the AT in the Smokey Mountains. We got snowed out and headed down to the campground on the North Carolina side. About 1 hour later a black GMC Jimmy pulls up and sat just in front of our camp site. Should I mention we were the only ones in the campground. I was reaching for a suitable weapon when all the sudden Dave's head popped and said .... MMMAAAATTTT???? Turns out Dave and Val had headed down to Gatlinburg to get married. By pure chance and some bad weather we had run into each other and got to spend the weekend enjoying the wedding and celebration (we were under 21 so the celebration was a bit of a challenge). So how did the story end. Well tonight Dave and Val celebrate their 22 year anniversary and Dave and I own a brewery together. So pretty awesome. (Also Emily eventually married me despite having to hike down in 3 ft of snow on the AT). Gotta love the stories @WabashBrewing!
