Today is Wednesday for some, but Friday for me. Why so early? Because I want to rest and prepare for the wonderful weekend ahead. So I am taking Thursday off.
It's the 4th of July weekend. A time to celebrate our Independence. A time to remember why we are free to do what we do and say what we think. As our children are grown and away at college, we do not purchase mass quantities of fireworks any longer. In past years, we have grown to celebrate the 4th by attending the St. Paul Rodeo, and watching a spectacular fireworks show afterwards. The one song that will always make me cry. Our National Anthem.
This 4th of July, we are breaking tradition. On Friday, we are heading back to CornCob Ranch. We have been working on the details of our living quarters in our horse trailer since Memorial Day. Our Sanctuary we call it. The water tank has been installed, the shelving, the large compartment that doubles as a bench and step to climb into the queen size pillow top mattress that so spoils us from ever ground camping again.
4 days of just us, riding our horses through the herds of cattle, across the rolling green hills, along the tree lines. Finding places to stop, look, and listen to the beauty that surrounds us. Just us.
We are taking the camera. I'm hoping to find locations for some erotic outdoor shots. Beautiful nature shots. maybe even shots of us together. We don't have enough of those.
Sunshine is in the forecast. Warm weather, with open skies. Oh to lie out on a blanket, naked, letting the rays dance across our skin. Maybe find a creek or lake to cool off, splash and tease, to find that playfulness married couples sometimes forget they had.
And the nights. The sweet and sensuous nights of love making. That time for us to reconnect in our dreams. It's been too long.
I've am looking forward to each and every day.
