The author and her husband met in 7th grade. Courtesy fo the author My husband and I met on our seventh-grade field trip to a local amusement park. Twenty years later, I planned a surprise trip back to the park. It was the best we've felt since having a baby last year. According to my childhood diary, I met my husband on our seventh-grade field trip to Canobie Lake Park — a local theme park , an hour north of Boston. From the Ferris wheel overlooking the freshwater lake to the 90-year-old wooden coaster called the Yankee Cannonball, it would be hard to find a more idyllic spot for a middle school meet-cute in New England. The author and her husband went to school together. Courtesy of the author We weren't childhood sweethearts .
