The Bear & the Tiger
David and Yinja Murnan. An engineer and a designer, one very long list of breweries, and a habit of driving four hours for a waterfall.
The Bear
Cincy-made. Brooklyn denizen by way of Silver Spring. Gay beer drinker, gamer, urbanist and subway rider, with a fear of heights he keeps testing on fire towers.
The Tiger
First wine tasting on the North Fork. First bonfire in Salem. First ballgame at Citi Field. Since then: all five Utah parks in one trip, and the top of the fire tower David won't climb. A fast study.

01 / Memories
Pick a state, get a memory.
Everything we have written up is on here somewhere, sorted by the state it happened in. Some of it ends at a waterfall, some of it ends at Skyline Chili.
35 states, DC and Québec so far.
02 / The tally
What we have got up to.
…
days to tear off
Next up · the fifth
Five years, come August 2027.
Which leaves us a while days to add more states, more breweries to be disappointed by, and more waterfalls that are worth the detour. The new ones turn up here first.
03 / Said about us
From the people who were there.
But most of all, we search to find the person who loves us unconditionally.
But know that the love you share … and David being a traffic engineer, will always get you back on the smooth, smooth road.
… you deserve each other more than anyone in this walk of life.
When you see someone that much in love with a partner, you know you can't let him go.
I feel like I am seeing his most happy and authentic self because of Yinja.
