Although we were both at camp at the same time as campers for a number of years, we never met because we were in different age groups. It was only until we were counselors for the same edah in the summer of 1990 that we met (the first day of staff week), and the rest, as they say, is history.

I was a boy from the valley; she — a girl from the city — and Ramah gave us a common ground and common timeframe on which to establish a relationship.
