We wake up early, clean up, dress for the road, and make a big dent in the free breakfast buffet. We are on the road to Denver by 9:00. Mary and Marcy left a note under our door with their addresses and contact info. We file that away for the future.
The road passes quickly beneath us. Alice hugs me tightly until the day warms up. We ride 100 miles then we take a gas and butt-fluffing stop. Another 100 miles to the next and so it goes for the day. We stop just over the line in Colorado as the sun is starting to hit me in the eyes.
We find a nice restaurant, have dinner then look for a nice hotel. We pull into the first major chain we come to and unload for the night. I park the bike and trailer side by side and lock their wheels together with my kryptonite chain and high security lock.
I wake up the next morning to Alice's mouth on my cock. It qualifies as the nicest wake up I've gotten since Myrtle Beach. We make quick but quite satisfying love and get ourselves out on the road again.
By mid-day we are tooling south with the Rockies to our right and Colorado Springs behind us. I have a hotel room reserved for the night in Raton, New Mexico. We arrive after dark, check in, and easily find a nearby place to eat. We return and retire for the night. We put some miles under us today and we are pooped.
We sleep in the next morning and have a nice breakfast at a diner around the corner. We hit the road at 9:00 and wind our way west up through the Southern Rockies on US 64. It is a beautiful ride through the mountains. We take our time sightseeing as we head to Taos. Deer and antelope dot the green valleys as we ride through.
We make it into Taos by 2:00 PM and pull into a nice hotel. We check in and pile our stuff into the room. We lock the trailer to the fence and walk over to see Steve, my architect.
Steve's wife Erica meets us at the door and ushers us in. She functions as his secretary and bookkeeper. She gives me a big kiss and I introduce her to Alice. She tells us Steve is with a customer, but to take seats, as he will be through shortly.
True to her word, Steve walks down the hall with his client. He looks up sees me, smiles, and motions me to stay seated. He walks his client out the door and turns back to me.
"TC, damn I'm glad to see you. The planning commission has been giving me fits."
He looks over at Alice in her leather pants and deeply unbuttoned leather shirt and says, " Who is this lovely woman?"
"Alice, this is Steve, my architect. Steve this is Alice, my friend and traveling companion."
Steve shakes Alice's hand and blatantly stares at her cleavage. Erica slaps his left shoulder and I slap his right. Alice laughs.
He rubs his shoulder, mumbles something about just trying to have a little fun, and leads us back to his conference room. He tells Erica to get a bottle of wine and some glasses.
He ushers us in and leaves for a moment. He comes back with a CD and loads it into his computer. The TV projector comes on and he opens up a file on the CD. A 3-D rendering of my property and house comes up.
"Here's the problem TC. Here in red is where I proposed the driveway, road actually, up to the house."
It shows a winding road up the side of the mountain from the main road up to the house. He fiddles with the mouse and an offset green line comes up on the rendering.
"Here is what the county planning board wants."
It shows a much straighter and steeper road. I judge that it would be almost impossible to negotiate if the road is the slightest bit icy.
"They are concerned about the amount of non-permeable surface and want less black top. I think I have a solution that will appease them and get you the road you need."
Erica comes in with the wine and we stop to fill our glasses and make a toast to the project.
Steve pulls out a black plastic sheet covered with little black cups.
"This is the solution. We dig down and put in a solid sub-base just like for a blacktop road. We drop this in on top of that, level with the surrounding surface, and we fill the spaces with sand. We plant grass seed in the sand and in a month you have a green grass covered road that you could drive a semi up and not kill the grass or rut the surface."
Steve hands it over and I can instantly see how it works. The cups keep the roots from getting crushed and the soil compacted. I ask how well it could be plowed in the winter.
"I can take you to a place where they use this for their parking lot tomorrow. The plow just skips right over the top of it."
"Okay, I'll bite. How much more does this cost than blacktop?"
"It costs only five percent more than a blacktop road."
"If it will get me that red line I can drive up in the winter, it's worth it. Sign me up."
Steve shakes my hand and says, "Tomorrow, we'll go up to the property and you can see your house. Its already weathertight and you are about a month from move-in ready. I've got you an appointment with your interior designer tomorrow afternoon.
We finish a few other details then Steve and Erica close the office for the day. We jump in their car and they take us to a steakhouse for dinner.
After a lovely dinner, great conversation, and a couple of bottles of wine, they take us back to our hotel. Steve says he will be back at 10:00 tomorrow to pick me up.
Alice and I strip out of our traveling clothes. We go into the bathroom for a shower and stop dead in our tracks. The bathroom is enormous. There is a large separate shower and a giant whirlpool bath. The walls of the room are mirrored. Alice grins at me and asks me if I want a whirlpool bath. I say sure and she starts the water going.
We kiss and fondle each other while the tub fills. I am hard as a stone as I climb in. The water feels good on my road-weary body. We have covered a lot of miles in the last two days.
Alice starts the whirlpool and climbs in. The rising bubbles and jets of warm water take some of the soreness out of my muscles. She starts on my feet and massages up my legs. It feels marvelous.
When she massages up to my balls, she has me turn over and get up on all fours. She massages my butt and lower back. When she moves up to my upper back, I am so relaxed I lose my erection.
I drop back into the water and turn over. Alice crawls up on top of me. She feels damned good up against me. I kiss her softly and think about how good she is for me.
She is sexy as sin. She is a pleasure to be around. I am starting to feel about her like I have never felt about any other woman. I consider my options while she fondles my once again hardening cock.
