Ben went out and hid the ring. (Certainly in some romantic place.) Then he marked the exact longitude and latitude on his hand-held GPS. Then he made some of his friends who were really technologically gifted set up a camera a long distance away so he could record the whole event. In order to hear what was said they ran a microphone through the leaves and dirt all the way to the place where the ring was hidden along with a dozen roses inside an old army ammo box. Then he gave her the coordinates and she had to find the whole setup using the GPS. This is called geocaching and it is becoming more and more popular. I wonder if anyone has ever geocached to ask someone to marry them before.
So to anyone who is going to be invited to the wedding ceremony the coordinates are:
| 33° 57′ 34.7″ N, 80° 53′ 38.33″ W 33.959638, -80.893981 | |||||||||||
The reception will be held that evening at:
33° 59′ 27.8″ N, 81° 4′ 23.4″ W
33.991056, -81.073167
I hope you all have GPS. :)
Congrats Benjamin! I love you Buddy! Did you put the video up on Youtube yet?

I was ecstatic to see my good friend David had a new post on his blog when I opened up my rss reader today. I love reading posts from my friends!
Then I was elated to see a picture of my fiancee and I on it. I love you too man!
Awesome. Can't wait to meet you! Hope Ben brings his GPS so we can get to the ceremony and party... thanks for the heads up on the right coordinates :) and yes, it was a FANTASTIC proposal (you forgot to mention that his super-nerdy friends also had speakers set up to play music right as he proposed!)
