My first Valentine's date with my wife

I do not remember our first Valentine's together (dating), but I sure remember our second (first as married).  I came home from work and asked Carol if she would like to go out to dinner.  We had no kids so spontaneity ruled the day.  We drove to our favorite restaurant the Petite Auberge only to find that there was a 2 hour wait!  (Yikes!  Guess who did not plan this in advance.)  So, we left and went to another restaurant that was not so swanky.  The wait was equally as long.  I suggested another that did not even take reservations, and it too had a very long wait.  By now, we had been driving around for an hour and a half.  It was way past our usual time to eat and it was a work night.  Carol was done.  As we drove home, Carol noticed a Taco Bell that had no customers at all.  Imagine that, no customers on Valentines Day.  It was our lucky day.  She suggested we go there and we did.  We topped the special night off with an order of Cinnamon Twists^®.

I had no idea what an impact that night had made.  As, every Valentine's Day afterward we only ate at Taco Bell.  As the kids aged, they reveled in the thought of reliving our first Valentines day together as they munched on a 5-layer burrito.  And, we always had the restaurant to ourselves.  How romantic!  I went back and tried to find some pictures of this special night.  You know, this is the only one I could find.  Do you think someone else did not think it was so special?
