this past saturday after thanksgiving my boyfriend (Bruce) asked me to marry him while climbing at Chickies Rock in Columbia, PA! while leading the climb, he left little notes at every piece of pro. the last note read, "will you marry me?" he was sitting on the ledge above me with the ring in his teeth since his hands were busy belaying me! it was great! now he will be my husband and my climbing partner! ~Amber

Congratulations! I guess you can "get belayed" on your wedding night after you two have "tied the knot."

That's got to be the coolest proposal ever! You should reenact the moment and submit it to Lifetimes "A Wedding Story". Shucks, I don't even know you guys and I think I'm gonna cry! That's so romantic! Good luck.
