Anthony and Lori met at a little local beach in O.B. called Santa Cruz Cove on September 9, 2021. Lori asked Anthony if he wanted to join her in swimming a mile in the ocean along the cliffs “to the stairs and back”. During their casual swim, they had their first conversation, raving about their love for traveling, reggae music, and swimming in warm water. Quickly, they discovered they had a lot in common with similar passions. Once ashore they exchanged cellphone numbers. Later that evening they went on their first date to Ironside Oyster Bar in little Italy. Their second date was a K Bong concert in Solona beach and their third date was a Slightly Stoopid concert in San Diego with friends. Their fourth date, was a 7 night trip to the big Island of Hawaii to swim in warm water, camp, and look at properties :)
