A Whale of a Tale

aka Bob’s Birthday Bash 6/10/2017

Linnea and Mike met on a whale watch on June 10th, 2017. Mike and his friends boarded the vessel to celebrate groomsman Rob Borkowski’s birthday in matching ponchos reading “Bob’s Birthday Bash”. They were greeted at the end of the dock by Linnea, who was narrating the trip that day. During the ride out to whales, Mike asked Linnea if she could do a shout out for Bob’s birthday Linnea agreed and at the conclusion of their absolutely “fin-tastic” adventure, Linnea called the group to the bow for a shout out and some photos. Arriving back in Boston, Mike waited on the dock so Linnea could send him the photos she had taken for the birthday crew. Linnea offered to Air-Drop the photos, so Mike sneakily turned the feature off and said, “I’m not sure why it’s not working. I guess you’ll just have to text the photos to me.” Linnea did so and the pair parted ways. Moments later, Linnea received a text from Mike asking her out for drinks sometime. Linnea responded “For sure!” To which Mike quickly fired back “You mean for SHORE because we just got back from a whale watch.” And with that egregious pun, Linnea was caught hook, line, and sinker. While their first official date did not take place for another 6 months, Linnea and Mike still celebrate they’re “met you” day every year on June 10th (thank you and sorry Rob!).
