St. John, USVI
Mine would be Mall (as in DC) or Lincoln (as in memorial).
Idol: sadly, I can't come up with one.
proposal spot - we were hiking the goat trail at - Great Falls. I guess we could be 'creative' and go with Hiker and Falls.
no idol
Another one for Basement! Haha or Madison Heights...
Idol? Another for Diana (I actually told DH this the other day)
Proposal: Punta Cana or Melia or Beach
Idol: Jim or Henson
Proposal - Assateague or perhaps Moonlit Beach if I wanted to be more descriptive
No idol as it were.
proposal - Bahamas

"What is a week-end?"
Proposal spot: Jazz Club (I can't even remember the name of the place)
Idol: Audrey (as in Hepburn). I actually want to name a girl that, but it doesn't sound good with our last name.
Proposal spot: niagara on the lake
idol: i don't really have one, i worship bacon though, does that count?
My Food Blog
Proposal Spot: Bed, or Falls Church

Proposal location: Arlington or Ruth or Chris (can you guess where we were? LOL)
Idol: hmmm, i don't really have one.
Proposal: beach or Norfolk. Thank goodness we took a walk to the beach - otherwise it would have been "shady motel room"... lol. If he wouldn't have chickened out earlier in the day, it could have been Henry, after Cape Henry lighthouse.
Idol? Don't really have an "idol". Probably a scientist or inventor if I had to choose. I really admire the work of both Francis Collins and Tim Berners-Lee, but I probably would never name my kid after either of them!
Ours would me Mall (as in DC) or Washington (as in memorial). I am pretty sure our kid would kill us.
No life long Idol

Proposal spot: Bathroom (I think that beats basement! I was brushing my teeth
