My friend Dan and his wife Alice are from Europe. He and I often meet for coffee and talk. One time, he mentioned a vacation they took to a beach on the Mediterranean. Immediately I wondered if it was a topless beach. So I blurted out, "So, were you in a speedo and did Alice go topless?" My friend laughed and said it wasn't that kind of a beach, and beside...
Before her vacation, Mrs. Anderson was pleased to find my shop where not only could she purchase excellent vacation and beachwear, but through my family connections in Greece I could also provide her with information to make her vacation better. During her first visit to my store, I detected that her marriage and personal situation might provide an opportu...
A few months ago, I moved into an older neighborhood with homes close together. One side of my house faces the courtyard and side wall of the neighbor, and there's only about ten feet between our houses. The neighbor on that side is a widow who is in her late 60s. Debbie is not in great shape but still healthy and works in her garden. She's cute, and I can t...
In my tween years, like many of you, I was a Boy Scout. Our troop went on a camping trip every month, and it was fun camping setting up tent camps and hiking in the woods. One summer, we made a week-long camping trip to the mountains. This was a big project for the troop leaders, and our scoutmaster, Mr. McIntosh, brought along two other assist scoutmaster...
Sometimes fortune smacks you right in the face. Such was my good luck last month when I went to visit a friend in the hospital. After buying flowers, I wandered the halls looking for the room number. By mistake, I pushed open the door to the wrong room and peeked inside. There was a woman lying asleep in the bed, and a nurse was tending to her. The nurse l...
The next morning Mrs. Davidson awoke to a Caribbean sunrise. I opened her curtains, and coffee and juice were on the balcony. "Good morning," I said, "How did you sleep?" She looked at me and stretched her arms, "Never better." I smiled, "Vacations here are just the thing to help you let go and feel new again." Then I laughed, "Just don't get a sunburn."...
After dinner, I retired to my room, no knowing if my trip would be successful. Well, I had seen these lovely wives with their tops down, and that was certainly worth the effort. But, of course, I hoped for more. The evening wore on quietly, and then my phone rang. It was Mrs. Anderson. She got my number through the front desk. "Do you have plans for the...
I had known Mr. and Mrs. Roundtree since I was a youngster. They were the "young couple" on our residential block. He was tall and lithe and lovely, and they were both quite friendly. As I grew older, I would mow their lawn and be a guest in their home from time to time. And, of course, at a certain age I gazed fondly at Mrs. Roundtree's figure. She had lon...
Daisy's appointment with Dr. Frederick James was scheduled for the end of day. Apparently, Bill had convinced his wife to visit with Dr. James to see if he could help her problems with tension and stress, and Fred liked to meet with patients who had "special needs" when there were no other patients waiting. Daisy arrived after a work day, dressed in busine...
I was dog tired when I pulled into the Traveler Bed & Breakfast. After a long day on the road, I looked forward to a restful night. My room was upstairs in the old Victorian home. There were other cars in the parking area, so I assumed there were other guests that night. Sure enough, I could hear women's voices coming from the room next to mine. The vo...
