Side Tripping is the first of some occasional stories of and from the perspective of some of Lou and Molly's friends from touring across America in the late 1980's. Donna and Maggie are a Lesbian couple in their mid and late forties. There will be mature sex in this and pot smoking. All sexualized characters are over 18. Hope all enjoy, and any constructive feedback is appreciated. Thank You. S.L.
"Watch out for that hole on the right Donna!" Maggie all but shouted as their van lurched to the left and down the rutted, dirt road. They just hoped it was not leading them out to the middle of nowhere.
"You get to drive out of this lunar landscape Mags! I just hope we don't blow another tire or lose our muffler like that one on the side of the road ahead."
The couple had been through a rough Forty-eight hours. First Thursday started with a flat and a day lost. Then the long ride yesterday in the heat followed by a shitty dinner and a hotel clerk with an attitude at the Lesbian couple getting a single room together.
Today had gotten off to a better, early start, with a good breakfast, hoping to catch up with Lou and Molly at their hotel, they figured was about fifty miles away from them. They pulled off the exit and went to a gas station to fill up, just in time to see their white station wagon pulling out behind a blue and white pickup.
"We got to get gas Maggie and I want a few more gallons of water before we head out into god knows where."
"I know. They gave us good directions so far and that was definitely them. They had said they were going to be digging with another couple they had met in Arizona a month ago."
Maggie wondered if their horny friends were doing more than just digging rocks with their friends. They had a sexual energy between them that seemed to rub off on all their friends. Overall, it had been a fun trip west with Donna and they had just seen another pair of women friends for a few fun days with the four of them, deepening their bonds.
With a little luck they may even have some play time with Lou and Molly out here. It had been talked about and even though Lou was a male he was definitely one of the few they had met who they would join with, and Molly was with him. They were too strong a couple to be without the other when joining like this.
That and Maggie did really want to give his bragged on "Flavor Saver" a long ride like Molly enjoyed so much and it appeared Sara and their new friend Katy enjoyed too.
The scenery on the ride had been spectacular and so far, all the signs they saw in the small town they stopped in for snacks, and a turn, agreed with Lou's directions.
On the now dirt road, out in the distance as they passed the fenced in open vista of almost barren rolling painted hills a structure sat on the top of a rise along the road.
Maggie squinted over her sunglasses as she put out the joint they had shared on the empty road, they could see it was a combined house and storefront with a sign and fenced in area to park in. Next to a pickup in the shade they saw their station wagon parked and out over a hundred yards out she saw people working who could easily be them.
"I think I see them out their Donna."
"Cool! Their car is filthy like when we saw them in LA after they were here last time. I bet our van will match them after a couple of days out here."
They were out of the van soon with some buckets, a shovel they had and with some other small garden tools, along with a couple of gallons of water. It was hot already today, and Donna had dug out an old beach umbrella like the two she could see out in the dig site for shade.
Once inside the small shop and snack bar they were greeted with a friendly "Howdy Ladies," by a woman who appeared to be in her sixties with warm, sun crinkled smile at them.
Donna replied. "Hi, we're friends of Lou and Molly and we came out to find some cool stones like they did. I'm Donna and my partner here is Maggie,"
Maggie said Hi from across the room and was just looking around at all the cool stones and other things she had along with a large sheet style cake with "Happy 75th Birthday Darcy" on it and some candles and a few slices already missing. Behind it was a large bottle of "Wild Turkey" with a note saying "Do not open before Noon" on it.
Just as Maggie was about to ask if it was her birthday, the door to the digs burst open, and Molly came running in with a very attractive black-haired, Hispanic, girl alongside her who was wearing a smile like the Cheshire Cat.
It had been a fun night for Molly and her friends she bet as she ran into her hug.
"Hi guys. I was worried when you did not make it yesterday and I see you have met Darcy, the birthday girl already."
Donna looked at Darcy before saying to Molly with a smile. "That was mean of you guys to get her a cake with lie like that on it. She's not a day over sixty I bet."
"Stop trying to get in here for half price with nice compliments like that. It will still be Ten Dollars each, but I hope you will take a slice of cake and join us for a shot later."
Donna laughed and paid while Molly introduced them to Marta and told them Lou and her boyfriend Felix were out digging and getting a thick log loose and onto a tarp for them to be able to drag out for the car or truck.
Molly and her friend were already dirty, and they could see dust in the distance where Lou and Marta's boyfriend were hard at work already. All chatted for a few moments while they gathered more juices to bring out and got one of the wheelbarrows to use with the screen.
"Lou and I have a good spot going along with Felix and Marta and if two want to work with us there will be good pieces for all."
Two other cars were pulling into the lot, and it was looking to be a busy Saturday for Darcy. "I'll fire up my grill around 11:30 and be out to see what all of you might want today."
