Awwww… this is a picture of Ted & me taken over 10 years ago, on the day we first met. The date was April 26, 1998, but it is not like I am counting or anything. 
We met because we had both just happened to have been given tickets by a mutual friend to the Georgia Renaissance Festival. In this photo we are on the way to or from the festival, along with Melissa who was also on the back seat of the minivan.
Jeff, a good friend of Ted’s and the owner & driver of the minivan, just found this picture in his collection. After hearing about this continually “lost” picture’s existence for years I am very happy to see it, though I am surprised by how much younger both Ted and I look. Ted’s t-shirt is a funny reminder that his science fiction interest is nothing new.
It is really nice for a picture of such a significant occasion to turn up unexpectedly. Thanks a lot for sharing this picture, Jeff! The picture also reminds me that I have known you, the Vinson family, and Melissa for as long as I have known Ted. Wow!
