       My DD#1 is engaged!

       BFsam (finally ;)) proposed to DD#1. They sent me a video and it
       was awesome.
       They took a hard hike up a mountain (maybe 2+ miles) and DD#1
       was saying "I don't think I'm going to make it!" BFsam kept
       encouraging her "You can make it! In the end, the view will be
       worth it. You're going to love it."
       When they got to the summit BFsam set up his camera and started
       taping. Oh, the background view was stunning! He walked her to
       cliff-side, they turned around to face the camera, he said "Wave
       hi to everybody" then he got down on his knee. The words he said
       were barely audible, but I caught the romantic "You are the love
       of my life" etc.
       DD#1 did break out in happy tears, and she accepted.
       Now comes the wedding planning. They live in far-away state so I
       was happy to hear that they wanted to have the wedding here, in
       my state, because so many family and friends live here.
       They are looking into venues for next year, maybe March,
       depending on what's available and how COVID is doing.
       I'm so happy for them! Pickled Tink! ;D
       Thought I'd share the happy news.

       Happy for your daughter and her fiance. Enjoy the wedding
       planning.
       My DD and I just went through a very condensed cycle of wedding
       planning. We agreed up front that she would not get upset with
       me for making suggestions and I wouldn't get upset when she
       ignored my suggestions. Got us through a couple of rough spots
       since DH and I were paying for the wedding but she wanted to
       have complete control.

       Mazel tov!
       The advantage of "finally" is that you know they had time to
       think about what being together will be like. (I know people who
       didn't take that long and are still happy together, but I think
       the odds are better this way.)
