Taryn & Phil: Match Made Outdoors

A match made in the great outdoors when Phil Thompson proposed to Taryn Hecker over the weekend ... and she said "yes." The two share a love of fishing, hunting and camping. Phil's a PI but is having a bit of trouble locating the ring he planned to present with the proposal. He's owned it for a quarter century, just waiting for the right partner in life to come into his. Taryn quipped that she'd rather have a gun than a ring. Seeing the look of love on Phil's face, I'm betting she gets the guy, a gun AND a diamond/Kerri Thoreson (pictured), Main Street, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.

Question: Would you rather get a diamond ring or a good gun from your sweetheart?
