Back in Greenville I only spent about half my time on billable hours. The rest of the time and evenings I spent with new computer equipment and software. I converted my working laptop to be able to use a WiFi connection to the Internet. Additionally, by the end of the week, I had a small portable hooked up to a decent video camera also using WiFi to access the Internet. Now I could log on to the new computer remotely. I could then capture a frame every fifteen seconds, or less frequently as desired, and transmit it to my remote location. I could also turn on recording remotely and capture full motion video with sound on the 80GB disk. Now all I had to do was find a place to mount it.
That weekend B&B wanted to hit an outlet mall about thirty miles out of Atlanta. Like any smart husband I declined the opportunity to be bored stiff for four hours.
As soon as they were away, I had the new equipment in the house. I had already decided that I could mount the camera in the A/C duct high on the wall of the guest room. But I also needed to put the computer someplace where I could connect it to the camera and connect both to an electrical outlet for continuous power. I climbed into the attic space above the second floor. There was a light up there and also an outlet, presumably so that the workmen could have power when finishing that part of the structure.
I cut a hole in the A/C ductwork so that I could run the cable to the camera. Then I got a long extension cord to plug into the outlet and to hook the computer up. After about two hours work everything was set up and tested. Now I just had to wait until something interesting happened in the guestroom.
----------------------------------
The next week I was in Macon again. I could monitor the guest room from my portable anywhere, but the comment that Harry had made about 'every night' bugged me. I wanted to check and see if that were true. I told Sandra that I needed to take off about 4PM each day. She didn't ask me why.
On Monday I cruised through Beth's condo association about 6PM. The B&B cars were there and I didn't see any familiar cars in the visitor's lot. About 7:30 I saw Beth's boyfriend arrive and shortly after he and Beth left again. I waited across the street until nine o'clock. I saw Hank and Beth go back in, but Barbara stayed home so I drove back to Macon.
Tuesday I had just parked across the street again when Barbara called my cell.
"Hi, there!"
"Hello, how are you tonight?"
"Had a rough day with your grandson. He's working so hard on that tooth but nothing's popping."
Something, or more likely somebody, was popping but it's got nothing to do with Johnny. "Gee, that's too bad. He must be miserable. And causing the adults misery also."
We talked for another ten or fifteen minutes and then I saw Harry Winston's car go into the association entrance. We continued to talk and then she yawned.
"Honey, I'm really tired. I think I'm going to turn in early tonight. Love you."
"I love you, too," I replied and we hung up.
Six minutes later I pulled into traffic two cars behind Harry's car. I followed them to the nearest mall and watched them go into Magiano's, a restaurant that you could enter from the outside of the mall. After a short wait they were seated in the sidewalk café area where I could conveniently watch them. I hadn't anticipated this, but over the next hour and a half, while they were eating, I shot a roll of film catching all sorts of interesting poses of the two.
When they left the restaurant, they drove leisurely to Harry's house. By now it was dark and I again parked on the street behind Harry's and walked through to his backyard.
Harry really liked the idea of making love in that basement with the curtains open. He only had a small light on but it was enough.
Barbara kneeling before Harry, her mouth working slowly; click. Barbara bending over the couch with Harry entering her from behind; click. Barbara bouncing herself up and down as Harry lay on the couch; click. Another two rolls of film used up over a two-hour fuck-fest.
Wednesday I called Barbara while I was parked across the street from the condo. We talked for a while and then ended the conversation. About 7:30 both Hank and Harry showed up. This time the foursome left in Hank's car. I followed them to a new housing development and to a house where a party was going on.
I drove past where they parked and around all the streets in the housing development before coming back and parking near the party house. I sat in the car for a while to let all the people arrive. Then I got out and began to look for places where I could shoot pictures. I discovered that the party had spilled out onto the patio and around the pool. There was plenty of outside lighting that would make taking pictures easy if Harry and Barbara were out there.
I waited about thirty minutes and got my wish. All four of the crew came out onto the patio and began circulating. I took a few pictures but nothing special. As the evening continued, Harry had several more drinks and began to get frisky, nibbling on Barbara's neck and running his hands over her ass. Barbara pushed him away when he did that the first time. She has never approved of PDA's. As the night continued, she had several drinks herself. Harry became bolder and she began to acquiesce. Finally, I got several excellent shots of the two of them kissing with Harry's hands clutching her ass.
Shortly after that, the party began to break up. When I saw the foursome leave, I hung around in the trees for a while and then headed back to Macon. Thursday I would stay in Macon. I already knew that Thursday was a regular date for Barbara and Harry.
Thursday I got a call from Barbara about 5:30. She explained that B&B were going out to a movie tonight so she called early. After we hung up, I remembered that the last time they went to a movie, the action ended up back at Beth's condo. I decided to monitor things using the video camera hook-up from my motel room. I activated a thirty-second capture about 6:15.
I got about ten minutes of frames as Barbara got dressed to go out. She had put on some rose-colored lingerie that I had never seen before. She also wore a sleeveless knit top and a skirt that had a hem about two inches above the knee. She has good-looking legs and even without hose, she looked sharp.
After she left the bedroom, I decided to go eat. I returned about 8:30 but there was still nothing on the video feed. I read and watched TV, keeping an eye on the video. About 10:30 a frame appeared on the computer showing Barbara entering the bedroom leading a man who was still concealed by the door. She was already topless. I quickly switched the video to full motion and audio recording on the hard drive. I set the program timer for four hours. That was a long time but the last time had lasted at least two hours. I then shut down my computer and let the recording do its work. Next week I would be in Greenville and could watch the video directly.
----------------------------------
When I got to my office Monday in Greenville, I started on a major personal project. I spent most of the day doing research on the net and perusing books in the computer section of the local bookstore. It wasn't until after my supper in front of the nightly news that I took the laptop out of the car.
B&B had gone shopping briefly Sunday afternoon. I had enough time to get into the attic and remove all traces of the video setup. I had resisted the urge to see what had been recorded, because I had no idea when they would return.
Now, I hooked the laptop into my home network. I copied the video file from the laptop to a DVD burner. Finally, I took the finished DVD and inserted it into the player for the TV. I punched the ON button and the DVD PLAY combination as I sat down to watch.
The opening of the DVD showed Barbara, still topless, standing at the foot of the bed kissing a man with his back to the camera. He was caressing her breast nearest to the camera. They were obviously enjoying each other but something seemed odd about the scene that I couldn't quite identify.
"You're way overdressed," Barbara said as she broke the kiss. She began fumbling with his belt.
