James and I are engaged!
Here is the story of our engagement.... James told me ahead of time he had a special day planned for us on Saturday. James came over early that morning and made pancakes with berries for breakfast and then drove us up to Big Basin. We hiked the Skyline to the Sea trail, which is a beautiful 12 mile hike from the ranger station all the way to Waddell Beach, just north of Santa Cruz. I guess we got a later start than he had planned on, so we ended up speed walking the last half of it because he said we had to get to the beach by 1pm.
When we got to Waddell, my car was waiting for us there (THANKS Jeremiah and Jess!). There were even clothes for us to change into. James did a good job of discreetly picking out an outfit for me and sneaking the clothes out of my house the day before so they could be waiting in the car. Next he drove us to the Santa Cruz Harbor, where we met up with the captain who was taking us sailing! I love to sail! James had chartered a boat and captain for 2 hours for just us. The captain taught us a little bit about sailing and let us steer the boat a bit. Then we just sat at the front and enjoyed the sea life. James even brought wine and chocolates for us. We got to see the pelicans up close, which are Jame's favorite bird.
