Allison and Derek met
at a pool!

Allison let herself into her friend Tyler’s neighborhood pool on occasion and on this particular visit, ended up with a group of co-worker pals joining her.

Derek had just moved to Boulder and lived in the same complex as Tyler.

There was an underwater torpedo throwing game happening that Derek joined in and he was immediately adopted into Allison’s work/friend group.

After becoming fast friends, we went our separate ways for a few years. We eventually re-met at Tyler’s wedding in October 2021.
