Quite simply, it all began with Covid and canines...

Peter and his beautiful blue Doberman Lillie Pad (misspelling intentional) were regulars frequenting his local Eastover Park for an evening cigar. Erin was a new puppy mom to a demanding Rhodesian Ridgeback named Desi. Both liked to walk along the adjoining greenway after dark to gather their thoughts and kept running into each other and chatting.

It completely depends on who you ask as to what happens next. In Peter's version, Erin only expressed interest in a date once she discovered he was also an attorney. In Erin's version, she had a good feeling about him but wasn't that interested in being tied down. Regardless, numbers were eventually exchanged, a first date was set at an Italian restaurant, and ... the rest is history.

Erin has learned to appreciate and organize Peter's eclectic tastes and estate sale finds. She's also discovered a man who never shirks any household project (as long as there are reliable YouTube videos), allowing her to finally leave the easy single one-bedroom condo life. Peter has accepted that there will forever be a small pack of dogs following Erin around, including our new beloved blue Doberman Gertrude and Desi's nephew, Oscar. Most importantly, both have found life with each other that neither ever expected to have and can't wait to celebrate their happiness with you in the place where they first met.
