My Dating Adventures In Central Washington

I’m old school; a date for me growing up was the typical dinner and a movie, although I always felt that was a dumb idea for a date.

I took her dumpster diving behind the music store here in Yakima. We were joking around, and it was late, and I mentioned the Off The Record store, and she was game. LUCKILY, the dumpster was empty, so there wasn’t that much ‘diving’ happening.

I then showed her my work (here at the radio station), and then we went out and stargazed and talked for several hours.

Since those early dates, I’ve changed up my out-of-the-box dating ideas.

Even now that I’ve been married for 13 years, we have our couple of spots for great views.
