The sun had risen and was on its ascent into the clear August sky when I woke up. My alarm clock read ten past ten in the morning, and I woke up with a content feeling of restfulness that had been eluding me for far too long. I threw the soft cotton sheets off my body, disgusted at how my sweat made them stick to me. It was already hot today, and I had just...
Lori sat on her back patio watching the small fishing boats go by. After running into Bob, on the beach yesterday, everything was topsy turvy in her emotional and mental world again. She had gone to the beach to meditate and embrace the energy she felt generated by the waves when she communed with them. What she experienced during the beautiful encounter wit...
I guess everybody was at work because the roads sure were void of cars. I passed one here and there but that was about it on the trip out to the field. There was a small dirt area near the beginning of the field of weeds and that's where I parked. I just sat there at first. Mostly thinking of a way out of this project. I could lie. I've had that thought more...
The flight to the island went smoothly. They hailed a cab and were whisked off to their beach front cabin. Hank called in some chips from friends he knew in DC. The cabin faced the ocean and fronted a white sand beach. The cabin was very secluded. Amy stood at the door, looking out at the water as Hank brought the bags. "I think we packed too much," he thou...
Chapter 8 – I Love You Nick leaned over and kissed Marie's cheek as he set the last of her bags down in her room. "Do you want to go out to dinner tomorrow night?" he asked. "Sure I'd love to, that was an amazing holiday. I must thank Michael for the opportunity," she said. Nick grinned and asked, "What about me?" "Well you were fun too," said Marie coyl...
I did say that we ought to do some serious boating and after a good nights sleep we all rose fairly early and set off. The day was glorious with a few small clouds in an otherwise clear blue sky and we made slow progress in the direction that had been agreed upon over tea and toast. After the hectic nature of yesterday everybody was taking things easy, loa...
This story is from a long ago, when I was 25 and Monya, my wife, was 22yo. This is also a very naughty little story. At the time we were fresh married and lived as a happy couple with a little child in a rural area. Our neighbor was a widower gentleman who we befriended. Alfred, his name, had good talking and loved a young couple company like us. Only a fen...
May is the right time to visit the Island of Crete. The chance of rain is almost nil, flowers are blooming everywhere and air smells of wild thyme and sage. The temperature is warm enough to enjoy the sea, but not too hot so one can spend long hours on the island's beaches. It was a week into my holiday, when I got off the bus at the village of Shinara on th...
I gotta admit that my wife Thelma and I did some serious rolling around in the hay for a few days after that incident with Charlie. Thelma and I have been married for some 40-odd years, so we are best described as used to each other. There never has been any real hanky-panky to speak of, except once about 25 years back she caught me going into the local mas...
After her exhilarating afternoon at the beach, Emma went back to her hotel room and pretty much instantly fell down on the bed and slept, content for a few hours. Around 6pm she woke up, immensely hungry so she decided to explore the restaurants of the little town she was staying in. Still a bit sandy from the beach, with her shoulder length brunette hair d...
