A love note in a bottle is found years later, an ocean away
It was September 2012 when Brad Squires and Anita Moran decided to cap off their impromptu romantic picnic on Canada's Bell Island by flinging a bottle containing a handwritten note about their day together into the sea.
The young couple were around one year into their relationship but were living apart at the time, making that date particularly special to them, Anita told The Washington Post in a phone interview Friday. Brad was posted with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Washington, D.C., while she was training to be a nurse in Newfoundland and Labrador, she explained.
