LOVE is still on a roll at Ponder Cove

The past four couples have either gotten engaged or married while visiting us here at Ponder Cove.  Melissa and Adam came up from the Bungalow just this morning to announce their engagement. It looks to me like we are the  destination for your romantic getaway. So gals….grab those guys and I’ll blast the Beyonce…”if you like it then put a ring on it..uh uh oh..uh uh oh”.

I thought just the flowers were blooming…HECK NO…it’s LOVE. You won’t believe this bit of serendipity. Ok….I obviously knew John and Alexa were tying the knot on Friday at the Cove as I was throwing the wedding.

Then Scott gives a call and makes a reservation letting the cat out of the bag that he was proposing to Christa just before their arrival.

Well, we got up on Sunday morning and the third couple in the house…Brent and Ashley come down all beaming with news. He had just proposed to Ashley. Now how is that for a coincidence not to mention a wonderful story for me to tell.

So, Gary and I along with the Ponder Cove posse wish you the best of everything in your coming years together. xxoom
