A story by Peter P at Key West, FL 33040, USA on the 15th of January, 1995, at 9:00pm

I was currently serving in the United States Navy on detachment from Naval Air Station Jacksonville FL to NAS Key West. My soon-to-be-girl was in the Navy stationed in Key West.

We were out at a club and I saw her just as I was leaving. I knew of her but had not met her, she saw me in my truck and we said hello and she asked me if I was going back to the base and if I could give her a ride.

Here we are 24 years later, married for 22 years with two wonderful children in high school. I retired from the Navy after 24 years in 2015 and this map was for her for Valentine's day this year. I had it framed and surprised her with it. The quote at the top says: Total Attraction, Tell Me "What's Your Name", which was a Boston song ( What's your name) that was playing in the truck stereo the night we met, so it has special meaning to me. She loved it and it really melted her heart and it now hangs in our master bedroom to see and view every day we wake up and every night we go to bed. It was the perfect old school romantic gift.
