Gingersnap

I tried online dating for the first time over 10 years ago, in 2002.

I've always been perplexed by the idea of meeting someone online: chatting with someone halfway around the world, even though there's a pretty girl living next door.  But somehow, this online dating thing seems to work.  Over the years, I've met some interesting girls this way, from many places.  Brasil.  Singapore.  US.  Peru.  Lebanon.  Canada.

Well, earlier this week I received a note from a girl in Winnipeg.  Of all places...  

In her note, she talked about the Camino.  Talk about knowing where my soft spot is....

She calls herself gingersnap.  Cute.  Very cute.  Lovely smile.  Likes the outdoors.  Snowshoeing.  Lived overseas.  A reader.

I replied.
