Ebey's Landing: 8 years and 2 months later: Saying goodbye

One week after our first date (and coincidentally one week after we both knew it was love at first sight), 8 years and 2 months ago, we did something that foretold our future:  We went on a hike.

We went to Ebey's Landing.  Here is a photo someone took of us that day:

 

 So, today, to celebrate that hike, and to celebrate our wedding anniversary which will be in a few days, we retook the hike.  (and, in addition, to say goodbye to a hike we have taken many times by ourselves and with family over the years).

Here is a photo we took today, to recreate that photo of 8 years ago as close as we could.   So much life has happened since that first photo, we have done so much that it makes our heads spin thinking about it, but nothing can or ever would change the fact that we feel the same way today as we did then.
