On February 20th, 2022, a cold and snowy day, fate would have it that Alicia and Eric would meet during a Meetup group hike. Alicia was recovering from Covid and quite slow in the group. This didn't stop Eric from hiking in the back of the group with her to establish a little conversation ;) They happily agreed to meet later at Cannonball Brewery, and there in Golden, CO, began their love and adventures together!
