NICE

A Tennessee man proposed to his girlfriend by spelling out his intentions on a grand scale last week. Clifton Smith used white bed sheets to write “WILL YOU MARRY ME?” in 15-foot letters in a field behind Rachel Weakley’s family farm, and enlisted his future father-in-law to mow a heart shape around it. Smith then convinced Weakley to take a plane ride with him as “research” for a sustainability project—only to pull out an engagement ring when she spotted his romantic message. “She fell for it hook, line, and sinker,” he said.
