Our eyes met across a crowded Bet Am but our first date was a disaster.

The next summer, we were both back in camp. It was a Friday night and a storm was raging. The lights went out when we were in one of the covered walkways (walking in opposite directions). We couldn’t move because it was pitch black so we were forced to talk to one another. The next night, we double dated with Renah & Mayer Rabinowitz and that was it.

We’ve been together ever since.
