Geocache Description:

My fiancee and I got engaged two years ago on February 15th....because he knew I would kill him if he proposed ON Valentines Day.  This cache is about that day and how I never, in a million years saw it coming.  Hope you enjoy this basic member cache.

Two years ago my boyfriend at the time and I went on a mini vacation for Valentines Day.  We decided to take our trip to Victoria BC.  On our first night at the hotel he asked me to join him on our balcony to "enjoy the view". Little did I know, he was planning on proposing to me that night. 

A little back story....we met 9 years earlier one day after school when we were 15 years old.  We met throught mutual friends.  After a short high school romance we parted ways.  Fast forward 3 years our paths met up again (after he looked my phone number up in the phone book) and we saw each other breifly.  Another 4 years down the road we found each other yet again, and dated on and off again for the next 2 and a half years as I finished my education at Central Washington University.  Once I graduated in 2011, we made everything "Facebook" official and have been together ever since. 

Now, back to our vacation.  The man I am now going to marry was and still in a way a easy going and free as a bird kind of man.  Never in a million years did I expect for him to settle down with a girl; and I had come to peace with that.  I just wanted to spend the rest of my life with this man- married or not.  So after I had him sit through a 2 and a half hour long movie I finally went out on the balcony with him.  After he took a deep breath he got down on one knee.  My heart stopped.....and to be honest I thought he was joking! At first I said "Oh my gosh!  No way!   But after he pulled out the ring, I knew it was the real deal.  Of course I said "YES!"  Thus LOVE on a Balcony was born.
