the compromise

one of the first serious discussions in our few weeks of dating was

mountains vs. beach

i took the mountains. jeff took the beach. i presented my case. and he presented his. i would not be swayed. yet neither would he.

i could go into a lengthy discourse on the beauties that abound in the crisp mountain air but i think he turned off about the time i said the word "hike."

we never really saw eye to eye on that subject. but luckily it didn't stop us from getting married. and for the record, marriage=compromise. soon after that we moved to california and the beach became our playground. it still is.

let it be known, i haven't abandoned the mountains. but i will say that the beach can give them a run for the money. that, perhaps, is the secret to a happy marriage…love the beach. 🙂
