Congratulations Jessi and Shane

Two of our Norcal members had an exciting weekend last weekend to say the least.  Shane Gower and Jessi Belmonte have decided to tie the knot!  Congratulations…your Norcal family is so happy for you!!

Here is a bit more about these two love-birds….

How did you two meet? 

Shane stopped in the middle of his work day and ran all the way over to my shop and said, ” I’m not here to buy anything… I came for your phone number”

How did Shane pop the question?
We went to the Easton Corbin concert and after the show Shane snuck off and put roses and rose petals all over our bed in the hotel and an empty ring box. When I walked down the hall and saw the empty box I turned around and there he was on his knee and asked me to marry him!
How long have you been members at Norcal?
Shane did On Ramp in Feb 2009 and joined in June 2010.
Jessi did On Ramp in Nov 2010 and been there ever since.
Do you like working out together?  Why/why not?
Yes, we have fun doing Saturday classes together or just hiking or running in the park.
If you had to make the other person do one exercise, what would it be and why?
Shane: I would make her do Brama Bull so she can’t run when I chase her.
Jessi:  I would make him do Clusters so he’s sore all over for a good game of Punch Buggie.
What’s your favorite paleo meal to share together?
Shane’s Secret Paleo Spaghetti… don’t ask, it’s a secret.
Any plans for when the big day is yet?
No hurry.. 2012 uuhhh 2030 maybe
Where do you want to go on your honeymoon?
Kauai, Hawaii
