The next morning, we woke to rain. This happens in the mountains you often fall asleep under the stars and wake under clouds. So, I was preparing for a long day in the rain on horseback when he said let's just saddle up and get going, we only have about a 4-hour trip today before we stop for a couple days. Having come with him this way before I said we are going to stop at a different place he smiled and said yes young lady we are some places you can really relax and enjoy some of what these mountains have to show you. Two hours later we stopped and got off the horses to lead them down a narrow path to a waterfall and small pool. He set up a tent that was new and roomie made for 4 people and the whole bottom inflated to be an air mattress. he told me to go in get undressed he would get some hot water to wash up when I looked out there was a bucket of water under a tent flap I got out and stood nude washing myself when I looked for him, he was standing in the rain washing himself in rainwater very cold rainwater. This was the first time I had seen him nude I realized several things at once he was scared all over, he was chiseled who has a six pack at 60 and even his pubs are gray, he was built for fitting between a woman's legs perfectly when he saw me looking, he looked me in the eye I felt hot and flushed and turned so red I felt like this was the first time I had seen a nude man. When the water had washed the soap off, he slowly walked towards me, and I thought yes now. Instead, he waked into the tent and put dry clothes on. I finished and put clean clothes on while he made dinner for us.
The next morning was a wonder the rain stopped, and the sun just made the world shine or was it sleeping next to him for the first time. Odd we women see things so different than males, but it makes us fit together or now looking back was it the birth of submission for him that made me feel so safe when he is near. When I woke and he was not there I felt panic and sprang to the tent flap and fell flat on my face wolf was laying across it, guarding while I slept, I was not hurt, and James helped me up I was nude, and he had a pair of shorts on he helped me to the fire, and I sat on a big fluffy towel, and I eat breakfast. When we finished, he put the plates in the fire, and I went to the little soaking pool to wash the silver.
He then picked up the towels we sat on looked at me and said come, he led me down a path well-traveled to another clearing with horses tied up we went to a ledge, and he called out safe when he got no answer, we started down there was a cave at the end, and we went in the inside was large well-kept and, in the middle, was a large pool of hot water a natural hot spring known only to the locals. It felt so good to just lay in and soak. I asked him why this placed was not on the map. He smiled and said " the man who owns this land never told anyone, so the locals are the only ones that know about it. and thay keep it clean (It was not till after his passing I learned he owned it and by his wishes it has been kept a secret of the locals).
For the next three weeks he showed me many quiet and hard to reach places like that places you could just relax without the worry of someone coming Apon you unseen.
