Hey Everyone,

This is the first newsletter sent from Landry's Place. I don't plan on sending these too much, but I had to make a big announcement. Last night Laura and I got engaged. I'm sure most of you knew it was happening as Mom has a difficult time keeping a secret. :) Yesterday was our one year anniversary. A year ago, we spent our first date hunting for a geocache in the woods near Buffum Hill Dam and we thought it would be quite appropriate if we hid our first cache to commemorate our one year. What Laura didn't know, was that I had purchased an engagement ring and was planning on popping the question. We headed down to Purgatory Chasm to find a nice spot for our new cache while I was looking for a nice place to get down on one knee. We stumbled upon a small trail that headed down towards a medium size river. We found a nice spot for the cache and headed down to explore around the river. In the middle, was a HUGE boulder. I got Laura on the rock with me...and I'm pretty sure I mumbled, "I guess I'm not going to find a better place to do this." I dropped to one knee and asked. Of course, I got a yes. Followed by a dozen more and about 47 hugs.

I just wanted to let everyone know that hadn't heard from mom. If you venture over to %uri you can find a rather cute picture of Laura seconds after getting the ring on her finger.

Thanks for reading,
Love Adam
