We prove a conjecture of Drake and Kim: the number of $2$-distant noncrossing
partitions of $\{1,2,...,n\}$ is equal to the sum of weights of Motzkin paths
of length $n$, where the weight of a Motzkin path is a product of certain
fractions involving Fibonacci numbers. We provide two proofs of their
conjecture: one uses continued fractions and the other is combinatorial.
