Our First Date
We went to Tim Hortons, and then drove to Schwatka Lake :) Sarkis got his car stuck in the snow and had to shovel it out! Originally, Sarkis and Erica were going to stay at Tim Hortons, but Pauline was sitting at a window seat and was visible from outside. Sarkis was annoyed. Erica laughed, and reminded him there were other places to go. After getting the car out of the snow at Schwatka Lake, Erica and Sarkis went to Timmies to visit with Pauline. One of the first questions she asked was "When are you two getting married?"
Erica blushed. Sarkis hummed and hawed. The Best of Friends
Sarkis makes up silly songs in the car about their cat Darcie. He sings "Darcie is a good good cat--he would make a nice nice hat". Erica just shakes her head in bemusement. However, she did try a hand at making up lyrics. "Mary had a little pig, little pig, little pig. Mary had a little pig who really liked to dig". Erica decided song writing was out of the picture for both of them.
Our Proposal
Sarkis told Erica they were going fishing at Emerald Lake. Erica wanted to get to Carcross so Sarkis would propose. Sarkis was adamant "There is fish in this lake Erica, I saw a few."
Erica thought to herself, there is no fish in this lake. Even so, she resigned herself to an hour of fruitless fishing. Sarkis got out his fishing gear. Erica stared dubiously across Emerald Lake. She wondered how she could entertain herself for an hour of "Just one more cast!" Sarkis closed the trunk of his car, and got down on one knee... He opened his tackle box. "Oh! Look!" Sarkis said. And nestled inside was a beautiful ring. |
