Love is like swallowing hot chocolate before it has cooled off. It takes you by surprise at first, but keeps you warm for a long time.”

A Local SFF Member told me of this local event every Tuesday Night and described it as a place where the Old Farts get together for Open Jam Session with Dancing. They have a ball.
Actually, the music was the stuff I listened to during my Practicing Alcoholism Days. So now I listen to it Sober and date the old Geezers. (Except the Geezers I date have Adult in Addition to Senior FF Profiles)There is no alcohol served at the Jam Sessions so I've invited my 12 Step Friends to go. LOL!
My challenge is finding someone who is my Match on the Dance Floor.

Earlier this week - I went to a Music Event. What those of us from the Woodstock Genteration call Old Fart Music but what the heck, it's better than sitting at home watching DVD's. My girlfriend came with me. I was not oppose to dance partners but not interested in a Lust Connection.
When my friend and I found a table - we were joined by the man who propositioned me in the Church Parking Lot last month. We've been joking back and forth. I tell him that I require romancing before considering whoopie. He says No Way is he going to romance some woman!
I laughed and told him that this may be his opportunity to be romantic but I don't consider it until the FIFTH Date! (The Power of ShenaLaGig allows me to change the rules if I want to)
I also ran into Mr. Lazerus and his Very Much Alive Wife. (the man who told me that is wife was in the spiritworld and wanted to know where his n00kie was after a cup of coffee.)
I also ran into a Gentleman from Virginia that I dated last year. He was widower who talked and talked on our date. He was pretty beaten down when I first met him. What a difference a year makes.
Before the end of the night - I was propositioned by the Lascivious Man who haunts Church Parking Lot and Mr. Lazerus (minus his wife). Yeah Sure! These guys can write the book on How NOT to get Laid!
I have a Date with the Virginia Hottie tonight. Yea Ha!

Hiking In The Greenbrier State Forest

Yesterday, we had our annual 12 Step Picnic in the Greenbrier State Forest. Last year I camped, ran into camping cavers and had a blast. This year, I arrived early and took the time to check out the condition of of my Geocaching caches. My first Cache is LOVE CAN"T WAIT. It was in fairly good condition with an oversized travel bug so I decided to relocate the travel bug into SHERRY'S GREENBRIER FOREST ADVENTURE.. It was about a three mile hike to both of them. After the picnic, I checked out the final stage of my mullti-cache which ends up on the Old Fields Trail in the Forest. The Greenbrier Martyr.
After leaving the forest, I decided to go check another cache. I got home and my knees were hurting. Asprin, Bengay and sleep - I am ready to go back out this afternoon.

Geocaching on Humpback Bridge

The Humpback Covered Bridge located in Virginia, is the only remaining covered bridge in the United States that was built higher in the middle than on either end; hence the name of "humpback".
These Covered bridges were sometimes known as "Kissing Bridges" because couple in driven buggies could make out in privacy.
The Bridge was built in 1857 as part of the James River Turnpike. The Turn Pike was re-route in the 1020's when Model-T's replaced Driven Buggies.
Now it's just an awesome park with a place for to swim. It can still be a "Kissing Bridge!"
Had I been Geocaching with a Buddy instead of by myself, I would have tried out some of that KISSING

Three Graveyards, Geocaching and a LetterBox USA

A few evenings ago I met a gentleman via plenty of fish. We agreed to meet at the Wild Bean for Java and headed for the Irish Pub for a romantic dinner. It was a vast improvement over the date I had the day before.
Geocaching is an online sport where caches are hiddened and located with a GPS. I have two hidden caches within walking distance in downtown Lewisburg so I introduced the gentleman to the joys of Geocaching.
The first cache is called Soiled Dove. The Soiled Doves were civil war era prostitutes who followed the camps. They also washed and cooked for the soldiers. Sometimes they would put on the uniforms and go into battle with the men. One such woman met her demise in the battle of Lewisburg. She and several Union Soldiers were buried in the Old Stone Church Graveyard and later relocated to Arlington Cemetary.
The Second Cache was a multi-stage Cache which ends up in the Greenbrier State Forest. This Cache is named the Greenbrier Martr We only did the first two stages. The second stage is in the Old Stone Graveyard near the grave of the Greenbrier Martyr. David Creigh was hanged by the Union Army for shooting an Union Soldier who broke into his home and was terrorizing his . He became known as the Greenbrier Martyr.
There is the old Slave Graveyard across the Street from the Old Stone Cememtary. I told the gentleman the stories about some of the folks residing in that graveyard.
Afterwards, we walked over to the Confederate Soldiers Grave Site. There are approximately 90 unknown fallen confederate soldiers from the Battle of Lewisburg in a common grave. I was telling him that this would be a great place to hide a cache.
We were searching for a place to hide a cache and found THE BATTLE OF LEWISBURG Letterbox. Apparently Letterboxing is a Sister Sport to Geocaching. No GPS is needed. The Letterboxes has individualized rubber stamps and the Seeks have rubbers stamps too. They are craved out of erasers.
Dang! If I didn't scared this guy off with so much walking and so many graveyards, I might have him help me crave rubberstamps for a second date.

A Venus Retrograde Kind of Day................

On July 27th Venus went retrograde in Virgo at 3 degrees and will move backwards until she reaches approximately 17 degrees of Leo on September 8th.
Venus Retrograde is time when old Lovers come back on the horizon and a time to evaluate past issues.
Yesterday was a typical Venus Retrograde Day. I parked my car at the church where the local 12 Step Meeting is held. Since I was early, I parked the car and went downtown to the local Java and Art Shop. I was heading back and one of the local 12 Step Members offered me a ride back.
Sure what the heck! I was astonished when he asked me if I wanted to do the Wild Thing with him. Say What? Usually, my 12 Step buddies don't think about me in those terms.
"Gee! Don't you think you should ask me out for coffee first. " I told him.
"I don't believe in beating around the bush," he replied.
He told me that his wife recently died and he wasn't sure what to do. He had already asked another woman who told him that he was too old.
"Sorry Hun, I need to be romanced. I need friends, companionship and coffee. " I advised him.
"I don't have time for that, I see your breasts and want to................
Oh I better shut up, I might be blowing something good."
I climbed out the the truck and told him, "You've got that one right! He must have read the book on how not to get laid"
I went to talk to one of my girlfriends. Dang, what a coincidence that the topic of the meeting was relationships. The women took over the meeting, talking about their broken hearts and the unsavory men who did it.
The funny thing is that I still hurt over the Texas Trucker. Not bad as I used to, but it will go away when it goes away. Ironically the person that I am mad at is not him. It's me. What character defect do I have that causes a truck driver to think that Lot Lizards are better than me? Why would some dufus think that I would want to use my 12 Step Group like a pick up bar?
I was driving home and listening to my favorite Delila Radio station. One of the Listeners wanted a really romantic song. So she played, "The Power of Love!" I screamed. That was the song that the Texas Trucker played for me. The flowers that he sent and the song that he played were lies. Why did he think I was not worthy of being loved?
I don't know the answers to these questions but Venus REtrograde is the time to figure out the answers.
I don't anticipate a Summer of Love but I will be Geocaching in the Forest this weekend.

Last Week, the Car Doctor said that the Car has a Sick Transmission. This would potentially cost Mega $$$$$$
I took it back to the lady who rebuilt the transmission in October. She placed it on the Diagnosis Computer. The Speed Sensor was out. It cost only Forty Dollars to Fix.
YEAH!!!!
I've got Job Interviews this week but first I'm spending a few days in the Forest.

Every eight years Venus, the planet of love, turns retrograde in Virgo. The Retrograde kicks off on July 27 and lasts until September 8.
Venus is the Planet of LOVE - Practical Virgo is the Sign that Analyzes and Troublestoot. Venus Retrograde brings Lovers of the Past on the Horizon
This is a good time to look up old lovers but don't be surprised if the the old flame shows up at your doorstep.
