Dusk at SFO by OHW2007

Ali dropped me off at SFO last night for my trip to NY and the sky was gorgeous and he had to capture the moment on film.  I always get nostalgic at SFO because that’s where Ali proposed to me on January 1, 2002.  It was the day that I left NY and went out to San Francisco to look for apartments so that I could be closer to Ali (he was living in SF at the time).  He greeted me in the airport lobby and as we walked to the baggage claim he handed me my horoscope for the day which said something to the effect of “You’re going to get a special gift today.”  As we waited at the baggage claim, he took out a box and asked me to marry him.  I was in complete awe, and I don’t think I answered for a good 10 minutes because I was in complete shock – but I think he knew the answer (though he said those 10 minutes were pretty rough).  It’s a moment that I look back on fondly very often, and always when I am at any airport.  It feels wonderful knowing that whereever I’m going, or coming from, there’s someone at home that loves me as much as I love him.
