Ginger lived with her husband Adam, in the mountains near a lake. They had been married for 10 years and both seemed happy with each another. They were both content with their lives with each another and their family they've made together.
Every year Ginger put up with her husband's college mates coming to visit and have their reunion. The boys had been very close through all the years. Ginger always found something to do when they arrived. She could only take the practical jokes for so long then they became a nuisance. It never bothered her to leave, it was always at the right time to take a break from the married life. To become more of herself and enjoy what she truly loves.
She was in love with the outdoors, she loved to camp and never had a problem going alone. There was a lake near her property and decided that this year she would hike to the lake and camp there. She knew just where she was going to make her camp site. It was near a clearing by the lake not too far, but still far enough away from her house.
That morning as Adam was getting the house prepared for his guests. Ginger was preparing her backpack and gear for her getaway. Things were pretty normal between the two and as his first guest arrived, Ginger greeted him with open arms. As Adam and his guest began the weekend the others began to arrive. Ginger knew that this was her key to leave. She packed her food, which was the last thing she needed. The happy couple said their good-byes and she left. She began to hike to the lake on the trail. She loved the wild flowers that were in bloom and decided that she would take some pictures as she hiked. Ginger got some beautiful photos of the natural wild flowers. She was quite the photographer, she did this only as a hobby, but was very talented at that. The hike was exactly what she needed in her life right now. She was beginning to feel as if there was not much meaning to her life but work and home.
As she approached the lake, she was in awe over the beauty that surrounded her. She stopped and took some more pictures then headed down toward the camp site. She was the only one at the lake, it was still springtime so there aren't many tourists yet. It was perfect, no one for miles and her was in complete solitude. She began to pitch her tent and make a clearing for her camp fire. After she had completed that task, she decided that she would go for a swim in the lake to wash off before she began to make her dinner. She took off her clothes and laid them on a rock near the shore. She stepped into the water it was a bit cold. She had a wonderful body for her age, but her husband always made her feel very self conscience of it. As if he didn't want her to think that she was attractive as she indeed was. As she dipped into the cold water, she washed herself of all the negative thoughts that were invading her mind. As though it cleansed her thoroughly.
As he approached, he stopped on a rock to take in the beautiful site of the lake below. He could see from a distance that someone was camping near the shore line. As he focused, he could see a woman in the water swimming. Her clothes were placed on a rock near the camp site. He decided to sit on the rock, not to invade this woman's privacy. Also, to see who else was at the campsite with her. She couldn't be alone he thought to himself. He focused his eyes looking at her beautiful body glistening with the water beads upon her. He could not take his eyes off of her, soon she stepped out of the water and he could see all of her. Could she be just a dream? He thought to himself. She seemed so perfect to him in every way. He stayed there for a bit longer and watched her dress. He decided to walk down to the camp site, thinking that the others she was camping with would be along soon.
She began to get the fire started as the sun began to set. It was a beautiful sunset that evening, her had taken some more pictures of the sunset. It was time to get her dinner started. She went to get out the steaks she had packed and vegetables. She thought she would cook two steaks and wrap one up for breakfast. That way she could do some early morning fishing without taking a lot of time in the morning cooking. As she was stoking the fire, she heard someone approaching her campsite. It was a man, he was a nice looking man with a wonderful build. That was the first thing she noticed about him. He asked where the rest of her party was, she was a bit afraid to tell him that she was alone.
