Our Story begins in February 2022 when we met on an online dating site. We are both adventurous at heart and connected instantly over furture adventure plans and travels. By March 6th 2022 we were officially dating.

Then after almost 3 months of talking online and over text and phone calls we finally met for the first time in person in May of 2022. Making our first adventure together in Porter, Indiana, where we spent a weekend at Indiana Dunes National Park hiking and camping out.

Because Oconomowoc and West Chester are about 7.5 hours apart, our next adventure together wasn't until Mid-July of 2022. When we went camping in the backwoods of Patriot, Indiana for Zach's Birthday Weekend. On this trip KarleeAnne met Sam for the first time and it was love at first sight.

August of 2022 was a big month for us. We went on our first vacation (Charleston, SC with KarleeAnne's Family), Which is also the first time Zach met KarleeAnne's immediate family. Stopped in Tennessee, and Kentucky to visit friends and go hiking in Red River Gorge.

Zach then went on a trip out west with TJ (Our Best Man) and they made an unplanned stop to Wisconsin to pick up car keys he may have left in KarleeAnne's car the week before. Then Mid-August Zach made a huge change and decided to pack up the camper and move Michigan City, Indiana. Making us only 3.5 hours apart!

Trips to Michigan City and Oconomowoc got more frequent after September of 2022. As we introduced each other to our friends and family. KarleeAnne met Zach's Mom, and the rest of the family Zach was staying with during her first visit to Michigan City.

Our relationship grew stronger with each visit and trip and we began talking about future plans. Our dreams to travel the country, what that would look like and how we could make them a reality. That is until May 5th, 2023, when Zach surprised KarleeAnne while on a lunch date and proposed.

Clearly, she said Yes.

Plans for moving started not long after that. In full adventurer spirit it was decided to start life as full time RVer's and to live in Zach's 26ft camper. By the end of June 2023 KarleeAnne had fully moved into the camper, and almost exactly one year after our camping trip in Patriot. we moved to our first campsite in Benton Harbor, Michigan.
