About Scott & Kristy Nilsson... & How We Met...
|
a
choreographer and
dance teacher
.
Scott was Executive Director
for Briarcliff Oaks, and
happily served older adults
at
two nonprofit senior communities
for a really
long time... but after nearly 24 years - Scott and his brother
decided it was time to take a hike ; so his beloved residents
and staff
threw him a really big
party, gave him a bunch
of awards
,
and now he's focused on the road ahead.
We head for water at every opportunity, with a
book and a laptop, and couldn't be happier together.
How We Met...
In 1999, Scott and Kristy
were both living
in Atlanta. Scott's avocation was inline speed skating
and helping co-ordinate long distance road races
.
Kristy was studying and performing with Atlanta Ballet
.
They were both bored with the same old routine
.
On Labor Day, Scott went to a post-race party for the
US10K and it happened that Kristy
was a guest.
On her arrival , a mutual friend told her a former
ballet dancer named Scott
was in the kitchen
preparing Sashimi . They talked
and
flirted late into the night,
and - although
they didn't start dating for five months, they
agree,
it was love at first sight
. Kristy
likes to say – she chased him
until he caught
her
met her, he
knew she was trouble
–
On August 25, 2001 - they did . . .
