How We Met

A long time ago, they met, Justin and Tim, at a bar in Evansville, Indiana. It was July the third, and they danced - a dance that they have been dancing now for twenty-three years. For hours, they danced till they closed the place down. Then came breakfast, at Jerry's. Justin was with his friend Greg Hayden, who actually prodded the two of them together at the beginning of the night. "Thank you, Greg." It was decided that Tim would go back with them to Lewisport, Kentucky to Greg's home for his Fourth of July Barbecue.

The Pate House, four miles east of Lewisport on KY-334,
is where 18-year-old Abraham Lincoln successfully
defended himself for operating a ferry without a license.
Judge Pate was so impressed by Lincoln that he encouraged
 him to study law, and the rest is history. Also on KY-334
 is the Emmick Plantation House, built in 1854 with
bricks made on the farm.

They followed Tim to his apartment to drop off his car and away they went. By this time the sun had just started to come up, and they all drug themselves in for a few hours of sleep. Greg lived in a cabin built in 1854. Later that morning people started to arrive and the party began. Kentucky barbecues start out really having no beginning, people just start to show up and then more come and more till it simply, well, becomes. Hours of prep work, tables of food, beer, laughter, and I think, as at all Kentucky barbecues, there was even a fight. Tim and Justin were never apart. Some things never change.

Some months later, they take the plunge. Justin comes to Evansville and they move in together, for what neither of them knew at the time would be ... for life ...
