“Our Story” in the Form of Multiple Choice Questions

1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When Joe finally asked Caryn out on a date, Joe:❤️ a.Told her he had been getting up the courage for some time to ask her out, and showed up with her favorite flowers.❤️ b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Invited her out to dinner and a romantic movie that he knew she would love.❤️ c. Said “Hey, Brooks - I'm going to Napa this weekend. You want to come with?” “What - like on a date?!?” she asked. 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Caryn was the Regional HSE Manager and Joe was the Regional Manufacturing Manager for a company in California.&nbsp;&nbsp;On one of their business trips to Denver, Caryn missed her flight back because:❤️ a.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Joe said he could do 10 donuts on a snowmobile, and Caryn called his bluff.&nbsp;❤️ b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The roads to the airport were closed due to bad winter weather, so they snuggled by the fire at the lodge and fell in love.&nbsp;Together, they stopped a heartless developer from turning the old lodge into a parking garage, established a reindeer farm to benefit underprividged children, and saved Christmas.❤️ c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Joe dared Caryn to eat 6 Arby’s roast beef sandwiches at one time, and she got too sick to fly home. (She's no Joey Chestnut, but still!) 3.&nbsp;There is a certain Target Department Store in Tyler, Texas where Joe and Elise are no longer welcome. This is because:❤️ a. They were caught jousting with tubes of wrapping paper.❤️ b. They took up the entire toy aisle with a G.I. Joe vs. Transformers battle, of epic proportions.❤️ c. They engaged in a squirt lotion fight in the cosmetic aisle that doused Caryn with Jergens as "collateral damage." 4. Joe loves spending time at his cabin in the woods, and frequently has encounters with "nature." On one sunny afternoon:❤️ a.&nbsp;A coyote came wandering into the cabin looking for food because Elise left the cake out.❤️ b.&nbsp;A crow flew down and grabbed an unattended sandwich off of Joe's plate, to which he shouted "NOT TODAY, STEVE!!!" and then ran after his pellet gun.❤️ c.&nbsp;A rat snake came squirting out of the cabin eaves while Joe was up on a ladder, and Joe "screamed like a little girl!"&nbsp;(Incidentally, Caryn was laughing too hard to get a really good video of it, but one DOES exist! 😄) ❤️ Hint:&nbsp;The answer to every question is ”c”

Luxury Motor CoachSeating Capacity: Up to 55 For reliable and comfortable transportation to and from "Caryn &amp; Joe's Big, Beautiful Wedding," our charter bus is the top-tier choice. With a seating capacity for up to 55 individuals, this bus is perfect for wedding revelers and any well-heeled wedding crashers who can truly "blend in." Our foremost priority is safety, bolstered by professional former "Monster Jam" truck drivers, noise-reducing interiors, and three-point seat belts (5-point available upon request). Our passengers can benefit from individual climate controls (keeping both hot tempers and frosty personas to a minimum) and ergonomically-designed reclining seats, ensuring a comfortable journey while allowing you to jack with the passenger directly behind you. Additionally, spacious overhead compartments and large luggage bays mean that oversized wedding gifts, left-over wedding cake, any buffet food you managed to get away with, and other "essentials" are stored with ease. Stay informed and entertained with our AM/FM radio and DVD system, and benefit from our PA system for clear announcements and Neil Diamond karaoke. The on-board restroom facilities maintain cleanliness standards in the event you've been "over-served," while the provision of AC power outlets and WiFi ensures everyone remains super-charged and well connected. With C&amp;S Executive, all journeys, even this one, are made seamless and (relatively) stress-free... ...and I bet they're not going to hire me to write their next marketing brochures... 😄
