The date was set for just after the ski season had finished, so I knew there wouldn't be too many people around. I went up a couple of times before to check out the area and to see how things were looking. If you've ever spent time at a ski resort after it's closed for the winter, you'll know how quickly things can change. The environment can morph drastically every day with mud and runoff, areas will suddenly close for Elk migration and snow melt can lead to flash floods, so you have to be prepared.
The bridge was snowy and there were old leaves under the snow from the fall, so I went up a little earlier than planned with my handy broom and shovel to clean the bridge up a little for the photos. Then I secretly feared that Kacy might notice how clean it looked and realize something was up, so I had to make it look somewhat natural. I tend to over think these things because I always get so nervous for the guys!
They arrived a few minutes later and after a small detour to look at the church, they made their way down to the bridge, where I was waiting and trying to look like a random tourist taking photos of the stream. I found out afterwards that Kacy had told Blake to watch out, because they might accidentally get in my photos!!
Thankfully she said yes and the proposal was a great success! Here are some photos from the big moment.
