A Long Shot But

“Dear PoPville,

A month or two ago, a friend of mine proposed to his now fiance, in Meridian Hill/Malcolm X Park. He had his guitar and sang a song he’d written, they were picnicking, and he had a friend of his hiding in the bushes to take photos. There was a stranger (a female) nearby who realized his friend hiding in the bushes, quickly caught on about what was happening, and ended up taking a video of the proposal (how sweet and thoughtful!)! She approached my newly engaged friend to ask for his email address so she could send the video… but she never did! I’m hoping to help a friend out and see if we can track the video down so my friend and his now fiance can appreciate it together for years to come.”

Please if you’re out there, please email [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP.
