Keys Adventure

I did what only a tourist would do, I went online and found a small
bungalow in the keys with the barest of amenities.
It sits right on the sand on the west side of the island promising awesome
sunsets. It offered a window air conditioner for the bedroom on request. I
arranged for the owner to pre-stock the fridge for me with some base food
and drinks beer and wine. I found them very helpful as long as my credit
card worked.

I had been in a on again off again kind of relationship thing, that as
happens had reached a point where it was less difficult to not talk than to
talk. We had reached a point where I felt like I was a crash pad and a meal
ticket. I'd had enough so I changed the lock codes on the doors and asked
him to not come back for a while. It went smoothly without emotion and I
finalized my plans to get away for a few days.

I flew into Key West , flying has gotten a bit easier but it's still a
problem for me but that's ancient history now days. I got my rental sub
compact and made the short jaunt to the tiny key. I found the place and was
met by a stunning attractive buff older man. He welcomed me to the cottages
and said his name was Huey. He said I flew them in Nam, back when you were
a twinkle in your pappies eye! I laughed at his joke. His lovely wife Ellen
plump and glowing from years of sun living, came in from a door way and
said welcome and that everything I had asked for has been arranged and put
in the cottage. She winked and said everything. I laughed and said thanks
you guys are amazing. Huey rifled a couple of beers out of a small fridge
and handed me one and gave one to Ellen as well. We finished checking me in
and toasted a perfect visit.

I drank my beer with them and we walked to my car as I retrieved my bag, it
was very casual as we moved along Ellen opened the door to the cute cottage
and it was tastefully keys chic. Huey was outside plucking at a shrub.
Ellen opened the fridge and showed me the shopping she had done. There was
a cooler with cold Corona's Limes the wine I had asked for was in the
fridge.  She showed me the bedroom bathroom towels and such. Then opened up
the nightstand drawer and set a small plastic container on the stand, she
giggled and said Huey got it for you, work it out with him!

I thanked them and she said we have a very open door policy here your
welcome anytime to pop in have a beer or whatever we do ask that you not
drink and drive! We can arrange any transportation you need. I thanked her
and pulled out my money clip and she smiled and said that won't be
necessary Mika. Just get with Huey about the special order. She said I go
shopping almost every day and will gladly pick up anything you need. She
left and they walked up the path smiling and chatting it up.

I got a beer and unpacked my meager supplies , then opened up my plastic
container and took a whiff,, it was top shelf weed! Good ole Huey! There
were rolling papers and a small one hitter in the container as well. I
packed up a little one and fired it up. There was a outside shower on the
house that used solar heated water an I found out that was the only shower.
I took off my traveling clothes and grabbed a pair of board shorts and my
beer and stepped thru the slatted door to the shower space. It had a door
to the outside as well to wash off the sand I'm sure.

It was awesome weed, I fixed a sandwich got a beer and sat on the front
porch watching the sun work it's way to the big sizzle. I could hear a TV
as background noise and a cute 50's couple was in the next down cottage. As
they passed by they spoke politely pale and sunburn would be the condition
of the skin. He announced in a touristy way they had been to Key West all
day seeing the sights. I bode them well and suggested they stop by for a
beer or glass of wine. When In Rome do as the Romans I surmised.

Within minutes the pasty heavy man came back up the path with a beer in
hand. He asked my name by offering his own Jack, I sell farm equipment in
Minnesota. My wife's Doris we are not used to the heat. Doris came up in a
flowing thing she called a Moo Moo. She was barefoot and had a large glass
of wine, Muscato she announced. Three kids both daughters married one son ,
he's gay, suggested we come to Key West so we are here. I said well this
isn't Key West , it's close. Jack said it's as close as I can handle right
now. Jack says to me are you Gay? I mean your hear alone. I said I try not
to label myself or others. We talked about work and life and of course
politics.

They didn't overstay the time with me and I walked the grounds a bit, 5
neat cottages along with Huey and Ellen's home/office. One was empty for
sure, one had a gay couple the others had clothes about but no obvious
occupants. I walked to the water as Mr. Sun touched the water, I swear it
sizzles every time. I turned to head back to the cottage and Huey was
leaning against a palm. He said it never gets old it's never the same and
it's always a thing of beauty. I smiled feeling he had said it all. I
waited a bit and quietly said, for him to stop by so I could repay him for
making such amazing arrangements. He said to me looking off distantly they
called me fearless back in Nam,, mostly I was stoned. I appreciate a fellow
stoner. He said Ms. Ellen likes you, said your southern proper raised, I
replied , Richmond Va. parents are lawyers as am I although I've never set
for the bar.

He said catch up with me anytime, I'm not pushing you. I said you want to
smoke up? He smiled put a big hand on my shoulder and said I was hoping you
were going to offer. We went in and smoked and he then said,, I get worried
if I don't get a invite, it's the proper thing to do. I agreed with him and
thanked him again for his excellent taste.

He said well around here from now till 5am you will smell a lot of it!
Every night. He bode his farewell and left me to my own. I pulled a cork on
a nice bottle of wine and poured a glass. I walked outside an down to the
waters edge. I noticed lights on the water and refilled my glass and walked
up the beach. There were several young men shrimping with lights and nets .
They were young in shape and very local. Board shorts hung seductively low
chiseled chests bronzed by the sun untamed hair bleached by salt water and
sun. Experienced hands worked the nets and the buckets filled with shrimp.

I kept my distance and was politely observant of the work at hand. They
spoke with caution and care to me. I guess somewhere between 14 and 17 for
them all. As I walked away to get more wine, one of the boys asked me If I
had any smokes, I said nope don't smoke, he said got any beer, I said sure
do, but I would get in trouble if I game it to them. He laughed and said,
did you ever snitch beers when you were our age? I said for sure, and I'm
certain you don't need my help stealing beers from tourist like me. I
walked away said cottage 2 coolers out front don't take all of them.

I went inside and rolled a joint, listened to the boys creep up and get
beers and then listened to them giggle and talk about how they can smell
weed. One dude said man he's getting "Hi" we need to ask him for weed. In
the sill of the night sound travels far. I heard Huey clear his throat
deeply and the boys scurried off with my beers.

I was sitting out front about one am when Huey said, how many did they get?
I said all but 4 exactly as I asked the to leave. He laughed and said I
will get them back tomorrow. I said hell Huey I pinched them when I was a
kid, you probably did too. He laughed. For a big man he moved like a cat.
We laughed a bit more about life and I said my good nights to him.

I had arranged to spend the day sailing on a chartered private boat. It was
a splendid day the captain the mate a very attractive blond who was a
biologist. My only request was that we actually sail hard all day, we did,
pushing the small boat all day and I think the crew had as much fun as I
did. The captain commented when I offered up a generous tip to each that
generally they go on slow drinking cruises and seldom get to stretch her
out.

I had asked for some seafood when I left and that the cooler be restocked
with an ample supply of Corona's. I mentioned a taste of fine whiskey
wouldn't be a bad thing either. I pulled up and walked to the cottage I
looked in the cooler fresh ice and beers. I opened up one and stuffed in
some pre cut limes. There was a small kettle grill set up with a box of
matches next to it. I opened the top and there was charcoal inside. I
struck a match and lit the coals. I walked inside and opened the fridge
there were 3 beautiful shish ka bobs with shrimp and scallops fine
vegetables skewered on sticks. A small bottle labeled sauce next to the
skewers and a container that said slaw, and a huge piece of Key Lime Pie on
a plate. I took a shower smoked a bit, put the bobs on the coals and
slathered them in sauce. The grill sizzled and smoked as I sipped a icy
cold beer.

I enjoyed my meal In quiet reflection enjoying the fresh seafood and crisp
vegetables and slaw, it was a perfect. I cleaned up as the guests in one of
the cottages came out dressed for a night on the town. 2 very attractive
men obviously very comfortable with each other in classy casual party
clothes. They drifted by commenting on the delicious smells. I offered the
meager remains of my feast. The both took beers and invited me join in the
night time activities in Key West. We talked a bit about the evening and
spur of the moment I decided to join in. I donned some clothes and we
walked to the lot. Huey was there chatting with the cabby. He slipped a
card in my pocket and said in a fatherly way don't take drinks you didn't
order, or see made. Call this number to get back here! He had a serious
look about him.

I'm not going to regale you in Key West Bar Adventures, my writing style
couldn't out do most of your imaginations. But leave it to be that it's no
holds barred. At 1am I called the number on the card and told the driver
where I was. Within minutes I was on my way to the cottages. I hadn't
planned on a night on the town, and I had been comfortably cautious. I saw
Huey and waved at him as I passed by. I filled the one hitter and noticed
the bottle of Makers Mark on the dresser. I took the plastic tub and the MM
to the front porch and grabbed a glass along the way. I scooped up some ice
from the cooler still full of beers and took a hit poured a shot and
sipped. I said come join me Huey. He stepped away from the palm along the
path and said, I'm sorry.

I said thanks for the MM and the concern. I'm not cut out for Key West
village life. It's to far out there for me. Huey took a hit of the pot and
while I got him a glass and ice. He pulled out a beer poured a shot and in
his full on manly form exhaled the smoke, took a big drink and then chugged
some beer. Then said that's how real men do it!

He said after a long quiet pause, I didn't figure you for a club guy. I
said , you figured correctly Huey, I'm not. He looked at me and said your
not really gay are you? I said, I'm not sure Huey, I enjoy the company of
men but can't seem to make  relationship work with one. I'd love to have
children but seldom date women any more. I think basically single is me.

He said your not the typical rich gay guy that comes here, I said Huey I'm
not typical anything but driven. I was raised to work hard do what's right
keep your personal life personal. How about you Huey. He said Me and Ellen
have 5 kids , 2 still living, one killed by a drunk driver one in Iraq one
by AIDS. He never told me he was gay. I guess he figured I wouldn't accept
him. He took a deep breath and said, A father never stops loving his kids.
I stood up hugged him and said your a good dad Huey,, never ever doubt
that. He stood and went off to his place.

I was sitting on the beach with a bottle of wine when the guys came in at
dawn from partying and they invited me to join in some bedroom activities.
I thanked them and declined thinking of Huey's pain.

I ate my Key Lime Pie as the sun rose in the east. I fixed a cup of coffee
and relished the moment. I saw Ellen puttering outside her place and waved
at her. She waved back and held up her coffee cup and waved me up. I walked
up and she came out to the porch with a pot and filled my cup. She looked
at me and said, you have been up all night. I smiled , said, thinking about
something a friend said recently to me. She said Huey likes you, be kind to
him. I said Ellen I love my parents completely but if I had to choose
another set I would choose you and Huey.

How was your pie? The best I've ever had I replied.

I slept and lounged all day catching up on needed sleep and rest. The
business of running a inn went on all day. The couple from Minnesota left ,
the gay boys left an new folks showed up that afternoon. If I suggested
something it appeared in my fridge. It was a great vacation.

I deal with numbers and opinions every day for work. What you think what
you believe. I learned something on this trip, the answers aren't simple or
easy.

I call Huey every week and have taken to calling Ellen Mom when I call, I
sent my parents down for a long weekend. They said that we will have new
family for the Christmas party.

I'm sure this will disappoint some of you , and some not. But I spent a
great 5 days without sex being normal. Yea it's scary to some.
