This was our first time Rock-climbing together. Interestingly, We happened to rock climb at the California State University of Bakersfield Rock-Wall. Victoria actually worked here as a part-time rock assistant. She and Maria would often come here to brush-up on their rock-climbing skills.

This is our first official date. I asked Victoria if she would like to go on a hike on the Kern Canyon Trail up by Lake Isabella, CA. The trail was not an easy one and the trip took up most of the day, but we had a fun time all the same.

This is the date me and Victoria officially became boyfriend and girlfriend. To this day, I still remember that day and how much it meant to both of us. If anyone is curious I asked her to be my girlfriend at 11:59pm. Just an interesting bit of information there!

Sadly in the month of July I was also diagnosed with cancer and so began our cancer journey as a couple. But still even with all the bad news, Me and Victoria would still find ways to have a good healthy relationship. On this date Victoria invited me out to go horseback riding to the Hollywood Sign. Interesting fact, the horse she is riding is named Top-Knot!

On this date we spent quality time with family. The cancer treatments at USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center in Los Angeles, CA made it quite hard for me to have energy or even schedule some time with family and friends. But on this day we somehow made it work. (Pictured from left to right - Cass & Ivan, Rosa & Augie, Isaac, Mars & Victoria)

This date was the very first time Me and Victoria ever went kayaking together. It was definitely a great way to work on our teamwork while at play in the water!

Hello everyone welcome along for the ride! This was our first ever 5k together as part of the cancer community. By this point in time, I lost my ability to run and as you can see also lost some teeth in the progress. But none of that matters cause on this day, we both managed to walk and hobble to the finish line of 3.1 miles just shy of an 1hr. An achievement we are both very proud of!

Ever wanted to be between Nevada and Arizona?? Well at the Hoover Dam in Nevada you can! In this amazing experience I decided to stand on the Nevada side and Victoria choose the Arizona side.
