P-Town Calls!

Oh joy of joys!!! We’re leaving for vacation on Sunday and off to three nights and four days of fun and frolic.

Actually it will be an eating, drinking, reading, shopping, vacation. I watched whales last year so I’m not doing that again.

We’re driving up with Doc and DJ and meeting our new friends, a NY city lesbian couple we met last year on vacation; husband and I get along with L and W so well, it feels like we’ve known them for years.

So there are three men and three women and I know at times people are trying to figure out who goes with whom.

The thing is we three couples all get along amazing well and it obviously isn’t our sexual orientation that makes that happen – it’s our commonality.

For example, all of us love to read, love music and are big time animal lovers. We all love wine, not just drinking wine but learning about it and trying different selections.

Some of us love to talk about baseball, and some of us love to talk about birding and we all love to talk about books, politics and the news.

Trust me, I would never vacation with other couples, straight or gay, unless I was certain we were going to be with flexible people who enjoyed doing group activities but also enjoyed spending time alone too. This makes for a no pressure vacation where everyone does what they want to -- when they want to.

We meet up at the cocktail hour hosted by the inn at 5 PM and then usually eat together at night.

We never run out of things to talk about. And we laugh our heads off, so needless to say, I am anxious for vacation to begin.

I am dreaming of chowders and lobster rolls, scallops and cod, shrimp and maybe some more shrimp, and the best damned Gimlets at Front Street restaurant.

Yummo, as Rachael Ray would say!

See you next week!
