Celebrity couple sighting

My friend Susan and I met for coffee this morning at Caffe Luxxe after drop off at school.  While in line for our orders, I saw actor Brian Benben (Shelton from Private Practice) up at the register.  I was excited about seeing a celebrity that I recognized as I always am, and attempted to get candid shots of him on my phone.  I managed to get a pretty good picture of him asking a neighboring table for a chair.  

About 30 minutes later, in walks Madeline Stowe, whom I've always loved.  She was in Last of the Mohicans and more recently in Revenge, which is the only TV show that Trung and I watch together.  The whole time she's at the cafe, I'm very aware of her presence, though I still carry on a decent conversation with Susan...what a good friend for not thinking me to star-struck.  As she walks out the door, I chase her down and actually have friendly conversation with her.  I tell her I love her work (possibly saying Dancing with Wolves instead of the Last of the Mohicans) and she asking where I'm from.  What a nice and gorgeous person! 

I wouldn't never have put them together, but apparently Brian and Madeline have been married for 30 years!  Pretty cool!
