3 years ago, on October 10, 2009, Rhett and I met.
10 days and a date later, I sent out a text:
"BEP & U2 in BC 10-28. Wna go?"
He replied "Sure"
We left Portland at 4am, were camped outside the Seattle Passport Agency's door at 8am so Rhett could renew his passport, entered Canada at about 11am, and spent the afternoon snapping pics in Pre-2010 Winter Olympic Vancouver BC {I have a photo, that I can't find right now ~ boo, in front of this } and then we headed to BC Place Stadium for the show. It was Epic. I dragged him as close as we could get when Black Eyed Peas hit the stage, for about 10 minutes, and then we went to the back of the floor and had our very own dance party. At one point the Wave went around and around and around that Huge Gigantic Stadium and I remember pointing my finger and following it around and around, twirling in circles. I'll never forget how huge it felt. And Then, something happened that may be the hinge that holds us together, forever. U2 came on, and we left. Who does that? Who drives 6 hours for a show and leaves when the legendary headliner comes on? Me & Rhett. We got a little bored. We both wanted to go do something else. So we did. We left the stadium, crossed the street over to where The Flag of Nations stage was set up in anticipation of the Olympics, climbed up on it, and to the booming of U2 from BC Place, we ran around and danced some more.

I wish I had kept some of these concrete memories. I'm one to get rid of what I consider "junk" and "clutter". Which included a lot of memories like this one. Love this post.
