Hot time in the country

Last night was the second time we used the hot tub. Since it gets dark early it fits in nicely to our schedule of "early to bed, early to rise". Our closest neighbor is probably a mile away. We know no one here so visitors are not likely to drop by. In short, like most tubby times we went out naked.

Well, wouldn't you know it, salesman comes a calling. This has never happened to us before even in North Carolina.

Kirk calls him to come around the deck while I scurry to turn off the tub underwater light. Now it is dark and I'm up to my chin in hot water with my back turned. Kirk being the talker that he is managed to keep this guy for at least 45 minutes. This is not a long time for Kirk but when you are sitting still up to your chin in hot water wrinkling like a prune. I wanted to drown him. Finally, I couldn't take it any more. I invited the guy to stay. I asked him to go in the house while we get out of the hot tub. He took the clue and said he would come back sometime during the day when Kirk is in his shop. Hallelujah.
