....."but they was witnesses that seen us redeemed" Anniversary Rendezvous part 2

Pete: The Preacher said it absolved us.

Ulysses Everett McGill: For him, not for the law. I'm surprised at you, Pete, I gave you credit for more brains than Delmar.

Delmar O'Donnell: But they was witnesses that seen us redeemed.

Ulysses Everett McGill: That's not the issue Delmar. Even if that did put you square with the Lord, the State of Mississippi's a little more hard-nosed.

[laughs]

Ulysses Everett McGill: Baptism! You two are just dumber than a bag of hammers!

O Brother where art thou

Well we all never know what will happen with the off color couple...that is for sure!

We drove over mountains, through little towns,

stopping at 

church yard sales and little shops

and

anything that looked like it might 

have some kind of story in the making...

big daddy is good about stopping anytime I ask---as long as I ask

three miles down the road and he can plan--

of course he does drive like a bat out of hell 

and proclaims me to be the "bad driver" in the family

....

that is another topic for another blog

and

since this is my blog and not his

I can proclaim to be the best driver in the off color family and nobody can argue that call.

....

we arrive at our destination after a long ride in the car

and

many Eagles tunes--

I go in and check in while Big Daddy nicotines it up out in the parking lot.

The owner proceeds to show us to our room

a rustic suite, large stone fireplace along the wall,

king size bed looking out over the mountains,

private Jacuzzi tub and private deck facing the mountains

light

light was everywhere

and

I was so pleased with our choice....

The owner explained the history of the room

and

then left saying she'd return later in the day with our 

complementary basket (full of muffins and fruit).

No sooner had she left

than I note Big Daddy 

running the Jacuzzi tub

...

now Big Daddy is a little kid in a bigger body

everything is always 

like Christmas morning

and

as soon as possible 

he has to sling the wrapping paper off and relish the surprise underneath

...if he gets a new shirt...

he never waits for a special occasion to wear it..

he puts it on immediately

even if it means he wears it to watch TV or sleep..

I suspect there is nothing wrong with this way of living 

and

someday

perhaps

I'll learn to appreciate it more...

anyway..

Big Daddy is 

running the water

undressing

and

before I know it,

there he is

naked jaybird

splashing around like he's three

putting bubbles on his head

playing...

me being the more mature adult

think...

not so sure

this is a great time...

but

I throw caution into the wind

and

strip down myself...

it is our romantic getaway and yes

this might be too much for you sensitive readers

so if you are not into off color goodness

stop reading right now!!!!

As I'm taking my clothes off, I think I hear the door crack,

so i check and there is nothing...

now

sexy hot mama

has a touch of 

obsessive compulsive disorder

I don't like germs

don't like dirt

don't like thinking about what other folks have touched ...or worse..

but

like I said,

it was a romantic getaway

so i surprise the hell out of Big Daddy

strip down and get into the tub....

bubbles and all

....

well.

....mountain sunset....

bubbles flowing

warm water

and

Big Daddy...

need I say 

where this is leading....

....

before I know it

Big Daddy and i are engaged 

in some romantic 

adult-like activity

...

no I will not disclose anything else

and

please don't share your imaginings...

....

but

we were pretty busy...

....

Little bit later..

Big Daddy is taking a nap and I'm dressed to 

go off exploring and pick up dinner...

I open the door 

and

there sits our 

gift basket outside the door....

...

hum..

did the owner come back

while we were preoccupied so much we did not hear the door?

hum...did she try to come in...

oh my.....

...

Fast forward...

we head up to the restaurant for breakfast

which is

an 

experience in itself...

her business partner

cooks

and

G. the owner serves in the morning...

and

no it is not her domestic partner because I did ask---

it is her long time friend 

of many years that she 

beckoned to come help her open the inn----she does cook some really mean French Toast like I've never had....

so....the owner brings us over our little breakfast menu to choose what delightful food we'd consume...

and she says,

"did you happen to find your gift basket?"....

and

I wonder...so I say,

"yeah....that delivery was not timed so well..."

she blushes a bit and starts to laugh...

....

no it wasn't she said!!!

and

we both laugh

but it

leaves me wondering what she might have seen!!!

Later in the week as we are joking...

she is explaining

how folks keep coming 

to the inn

and almost every week

someone say,

"the Lord sent me here......"

and

she says...

every time I hear it, it reminds me of my dad

and

I think to myself,

:holy shit what is this about:

we all laughed and i said,

'now that will preach'

....

She proceeds to tell the two other couples in the inn

how

she came upon our room 

and

witnessed 

a Holy Baptism of sort in the Jacuzzi tub...

a felt myself blush

and

before i knew it...

it had slipped out...

....

well...

you were standing on holy ground...that is for sure...

....

and 

I hear the line from 

O brother where art thou run through my head....

but they was witnesses..

that seen us redeemed...

as we have learned...

one never knows what might happen

when you travel 

with 

the off color couple on a romantic get away!!!

Have a good day...more stories to follow--but I do think..

this just might be the best one!

happy Friday..

the radical rambler...
