It all started with a simple breakfast (that lasted 2 hours) then on the way to our cars, Ellis asked "How do we do this, we live 4 hours apart?"  Indira suggested, "We can meet in the middle in Fort Myers," but then Ellis said, "I don't know Fort Myers, if I send you a ticket, will you come? You'll be safe, I'll put you up in a hotel or you can stay with me" Then Indira said, "You're a former Marine, so you must be a man of your word...I trust you. Yeah, I'll come." 

That conversation turned into a trip to Costa Rica, a trip to Texas, a visit to Ft Myers and 30 roundtrip flights from Ft Lauderdale to Tampa! One year later, Indi moved to Tampa! And we've been traveling ever since, to Denver(twice), to DC (twice), to Texas(Austin and Ft. Worth), to Jamaica and back to Costa Rica!
