At 1:00 PST four years ago, at that lifestyle "hot-spot", "Pea Soup Andersen's" in Buellton, we met. There in a lonely bar you stood, while bus-loads of senior citizens grazed at the salad bar. A Jack & coke, and scotch on the rocks, later and we were off. To this day, the bartenders always but the wrong drink in front of each of us. It had already been a great day. A "top-down" day in SoCal. The scenery during the 3 hour trip from LA was impressive to this jaded ex-New Yorker. But I stopped looking at it, once you came into view. We drove through Solvang and considered parking and walking around with the rest of the tourist. I was trying my best to stay focused and committed to my "rules" for first contact; a drink, maybe some food, casual, neutral conversation, no kissing, no petting, no play, no sex. Fate didn't provide a parking space so we decided to drive into the canyons and you wanted to show me where you lived. I think the description was; "drive to the middle of nowhere, take a left and keep going for 14 miles". You took me to a spot where, overlooking the valley, where you "forced" me to break a few of my "rules". Before we could break them all another car showed up, "lost" of course, and once we set them on our way we were off to find a place where we could break the rest of them. By 6:00, in a room at the Kon Tiki Inn, we were making up a new set of rules. Finally deciding at some point that food was also a stable of life, we enjoyed a Santa Maria style BBQ dinner at McLintock's. I lost all respect for myself that day! I think I had to marry you just to maintain some sense of integrity. I still have a part of me that says this is all too good to be true. Trust me, my pet, at this point it really won't matter if you disclose that you are a post-op transsexual. Happy 4th Anniversary beth!
