INTRODUCTION: This is a satirical piece aimed at both ends of the social ladder. It is probably best to hang ones rational mind at the door before entering. It is intended as a fun, quick read without any great moral or message. However, I hope some may find it to also contain a kernel of mystery regarding true love and the sometimes unusual forms it may take. All characters are fictional and over the age of 21. As this is a Valentine's Day Contest entry, your comments and votes are especially important ~ yukonnights

The twins were perfect, the pediatrician had given them an extra close examination in light of the unlikely pregnancy. Roger looked down on his wife and the two baby girls laying quietly in the hospital bed, and once again said a silent thank-you for this miracle. To make it all even more remarkable...actually, more miraculous, was the fact they now had two precious Valentine babies. Yes, Valentine's Day would forever take on new meaning for both he and Martha, his wife.
Rodger, being a very analytical type, had worked backwards nine months from this date just out of curiosity. Well, maybe more than curiosity since the fertility tests they had taken several years ago had indicated that it was he who was the problem in conceiving. Low sperm count, of all things. He hadn't admitted it to Martha, but that diagnosis hit him harder than it should...him being a scientist. The fact of him having a Doctorate in bio-chemistry didn't mean his male ego was immune to such an implication. He was never what one would call a robust man. No, he was just an average man whose strengths lie more in his intellect than in his body. Perhaps that is why his thoughts had just naturally gone back the nine months to try and figure where he and Martha had been so blessed.
It didn't take Rodger long to realize that Martha had most likely been impregnated on their trip to the States. Yes, last spring when they had spent three wonderful weeks roaming around in the southern United States. They had learned that some of their lineage had relocated there in the earliest days of the new country. They had no expectations of finding them, but were keen to simply wander the back roads to experience something new. It had been years since they had traveled far from Liverpool and life had become too routine, even for quiet people like them.
After landing in Washington DC and spending two busy days seeing some of the more well known sites, like the Smithsonian which Martha had to finally drag Rodger away from...they headed southeast and deeper into the rural areas. At first they had tried to stay with the plan they had carefully mapped out before leaving home, but after a couple of days decided to abandon all plans and just drive the smaller roads and see where they might end up. It had been like a return to the days of youth, free and wild...or as wild as middle-aged, middle-class Brits could be. Rodger, being a precise man, had worked the possible date of conception down to the exact day, even though, as a scientist, he knew that it was impossible to know for certain. But in reviewing his travel log, it turned out that particular day was indeed a memorable one...

"Oh, this is such interesting country," Martha said as she held her hand out the window like a child, letting the wind lift it like an airplane wing.
"I had no idea it was so rugged, these roads twist around to the point I have no idea of the direction. But yes, I too had no idea it would be like this," I replied.
"It's the little hamlets I adore so much! They all seem so unique and almost like something from the past," Martha said and the happiness in her voice made me happy too.
We were on our last week of vacation, and in our wandering had traveled far beyond our carefully laid out plan. 'Phooey to plans', we had said every day. It had become our slogan for the trip. With a tad of regret, we did realize that by tomorrow we should turn back east in order to make our flight back to England. It was that day, that special day before turning back toward our safe, but more boring life, that we saw the large sign, obviously hand painted on a full sheet of plywood; Annual Four Hollows Hoedown Tonight! Everyone Welcome!
"That sounds interesting," I said. "Shall we stop here tonight and see what a hoedown is?"
"I think we should Rodger. I believe it's a local dance and will probably have interesting local music...we'll see some live hillbilly music! I just love the way one can hear the influences of the home country in their old tunes. We've been hearing some of it on the radio, but live is always so much better!"
We had to get off the main route as we followed the signs to Four Hollows...and as the roads became even smaller, we ventured deeper into an old way of life we hadn't yet seen. We were both enthralled at the uniqueness of the place. Much like going on similar back roads in the remote parts of our own homeland...places where time had slowed almost to a standstill.
Finally we entered what was known as Four Hollows. There was a small grocer, a petrol station/garage, two knickknack shops, a church and a large barn like structure with a banner on the front wall proclaiming...Four Hollows Annual Hoedown!
We pulled into the petrol station to top off the tank. Whilst the tank was filling, I asked the attendant if we might find lodging for the night, as we wanted to attend the Hoedown.
"Shore, Lidia Hunter has three rooms she rents at night. You keep going down the road there to South Holler and look for a pink house. Tain't more'n a mile...y'all can't miss it."
After I had paid the chap, I was just starting the car when Martha asked, "Did you think to ask if there's a place to purchase dinner?"
It had slipped my mind, so I walked back into the office to ask.
"No need to buy supper mister, there'll be plenty of eats tonight at the dance. Food and drink is in the price of the tickets, and Lidia includes breakfast with her rooms. I'll be looking for you and your wife tonight at the hoedown, shore hope you two have a nice eve'n here with us."
"Thank you, we're looking forward to it. This is all knew experiences for us, you know."
"Well, I don't think y'all is gonna be disappointed," he said as I was leaving.
I told Martha we could get a bite of dinner tonight and commented that the attendant had almost the same color of red hair as her own. No doubt his ancestors once lived somewhere in our homeland.
Lidia Hunter's home was not hard to find, and we were pleased to take the room as it was the last one she had! "Yep, town fills up on hoedown nights," Lidia told us. "You'uns best leave that car here tonight and walk to the barn, 'cause folks'll be coming in from all around tonight."
We thanked her for the good advice and took out luggage to the bedroom. It was very dated but clean enough. We just agreed this was all part of the adventure, and we felt young and reckless again. Since it was still a couple of hours until the hoedown started, we thought a nice bath would be appropriate before the night out. It was then we realized that there was no bath in the room.
"Go ask Lidia where the bathrooms are Rodger," Martha suggested.
