Hi Mike,
Wow, that is a real work of art!
I have said that you are a very lucky man to have Lori, but maybe it is the other way around. Either way, you have certainly raised the bar for the rest of us guys.
Congrats to you both!
Mark

Hi guys,
For the last six months, people have been bugging us about the fact that Lori didn't have an engagement ring, and we've been promising that it would be
forthcoming. That's because it was a custom design, one that took many
months to design and construct. Drawings and even a prototype sample
criss-crossed the Atlantic before a final design was agreed to and implemented.
Well, a week ago Saturday, we hopped on an airplane and flew to New York
City (the flights were free, so why not!?) Our ring was ready, and its maker
flew from his home in Europe to New York to hand-deliver it to us! We met him Sunday morning, he presented it me and I in turn presented it to Lori, and then we joined his wife and son for a day spent touring the city (Central Park, Empire State Building, FAO Schwartz, Apple store etc.) and then we
flew back home the next day. They then continued on with their vacation in
New York, DC, Florida, and a Caribbean cruise.
The ring's Big Reveal was at Concorso Italiano last Friday, but I wanted to
give everyone a look. The ring consists of a 2.35 carat sapphire
surrounded by 60 diamonds, in a setting of a white gold alloy with a bit of
unobtanium added for strength. If you look really hard you may pick up on a bit of
a theme...:>)
