Ever since my divorce I immersed myself in the many things I had previously denied myself. One of them was motorcycling. I had let my license lapse so I redid it. Friggin graduated licensing now, I can't ride at night, 'til the next stage. I also can't carry a passenger and I have to have zero blood alcohol level. The alcohol isn't a problem. The divorce was necessary and not very traumatic for me so I never got into the drinking habit. Neither is the passenger prohibition because, let's face it, I'm too fucking new to have someone else's life in my hands.
Today I was in Goderich. I rented a room in a small hotel on Hwy 21 and rode into town, a half hour before the listed time of dawn, as permitted by my license. My goal was to catch the sunrise coming up the river, from the height of the Menesetung bridge. The bridge is an old CPR bridge that is part of the Heritage Trail. I got my photos, a few rather spectacular ones, then decided to hike the trail. 3 kilometers up I came to a tomb of some illustrious figure I cared not a whit about, then returned. Just before I got to the bridge again I encountered another trail. This one was barely improved and wound through hills and valleys, through heavy forest, to the river below. It's actually a loop and as I approached the bight of the trail I began hearing noises in the woods. At first I was a little frightened, being a city dweller, but I stopped and listened more closely. I was able to tell it was a woman and at first she seemed to be in some distress. I was about to rush forward when I heard her soft words, "Oh, fuck, yes!"
It didn't take a great leap of intellect to realize someone was engaged in a dawn tryst in the wilderness. At this time of day, on this trail, there weren't likely to be too many explorers. I rounded the last thicket and just off to the right of the roundabout was a large tree. I later learned it was named The Heritage Oak tree. It's some thirty meters tall and about 235 years old. Leaning against the tree was a woman, mid-thirties, I'd say. Her hands were thrust forward against the tree and her torso was leaning forwards at a thirty degree angle Her head was down and her shoulder length hair covered her face. She was wearing a long tunic that was pushed up over her generous butt, and yoga pants that were pushed down below the aforementioned feature. I couldn't see much beyond the curve of her ass because of her paramour's hands holding her hips, tightly. He was thrusting hard and fast and slowly gaining speed.
