If you know you know and then you just didn't

Coming here all these years you think you know the area, guess what? You do not. Over the years I always wanted to visit the nude beach a little drive from here but I just never came around in doing so, the family doesn't go there and although I can use the car I am not going to take them up on there offer, I would never get the damn thing out of the garage, they park in impossible ways for me, the mystery of the universe would be much easier to explain. Recently I started to chat to a guy online a little more than the usual hello and stuff and he told me there should be one on walking distance. " say what????"  So I went on a safari to see if that was correct, en sure it was only a short walk from where I normally park my behind in the sand there it was, a nice small sandy beach with perfect water and not to many people. As the other nudes beaches are also know as cruising areas I was wondering.... Well there were only one or two other members of the gay community and no cruising behaviour, did I actually found a little piece of paradise? At least I was or still am lucky enough to use it for a few days before I have to return home. So parts of my body will not be fluorescent white when I pull my pants down.

My friend from Vigo decided to come offer for a uprise visit and we spend a great afternoon on the beach. Talking and swimming and burning my behind just a little. I never expected him to pop over.  We met on a gay dating app a while ago and kept it to just talking and hey in a spontaneous moment we met. He made my afternoon and even beginning of the evening a delight on that little stretch of beach. Email or whatssapp conversation are kept short and basically with the normal amount of talk and subjects and now here we were chatting away while being able to pop into the cooling waters of the bay at any time. Well me diving and he tiptoeing at the edge...... He hates cold water but he went in once with me, more politeness as the need to cool of I think, the first few inches he didn't look too happy about the temperature, and me being me I dove in at the second step..... Not because I was about to have some crisp red skin but simply because I love the water here.

Hours on this little beach just flew by and he even brought me home in his car, so I had a very good day and once at home and showered it was a great evening simple with the family some comfort food and drinks. Summer can not get better I think. This is just so relaxing and great. Friends family and just letting go. I get out of bet around midday and take each day as they come, one at a time. In a few days it is back on the plane and back to everyday things at home, walking the dog etc. luckily I have a little over a week left before work starts again and all will head for the Christmas part of the year,

Next to that I am already looking for a new job as the current one is about to end by December if they do not change their mind and give me a more solid contract, which they won't I am afraid so hunting I go. I need to get through next year and after that I can see how and what. But I stay on the positive side and let nothing drive me crazy, for every problem there is a solution. Main thing is to stay happy all the way. For now I am about to watch my movie and enjoy a sofa Sunday ,,,,,, the rain might fall but the sun will be back and so will I on the beach.... Have a nice Sunday 

Waiting for a shooting star

Well it has been a while since I opened my blog and started to write, and I have to do something or it will automatically disappear, as I put this in motion once just in case off. (I'm not getting any younger, or slimmer for that fact).

Back in Spain and loving my time here, it has been some what rocky with my dog being sick in the kennel at home, the first week I was here and one other dog died in a few hours. As much as I like to have a few days off not having to take care of him, I do miss the little rascal. Taking care of the others in the kennel does create a link and when yesterday the eldest was helped crossing into the light I couldn't help but feel bad about it. These few furry friends creape into your heart. Next to that a friend in the village died after a few months of pain and suffering, we knew she would not see the fall arrive in our hometown but still when a friend leaves you are allowed to feel sad. Weeks ago my old neighbor changed from this life into the next and she was the same age, only 65 both died after a battle with cancer and yes you do know dead is knocking on your door but still....... 

Enjoying my stay here very much in the hottest summer for the last couple of years, the shadows where there, even though I have an easy approach on death itself I can't help to feel a little more each year I get older. I think I can positively say I will not be a serious sobbing guy regarding to death but it sure makes the reality of my own (which I hope will not be soon) a little bit more believable.  A thing that always seems to be far far away.  The local beach and in this season the many people on it give me some distraction from the darker thoughts, and for you know who, the hot shorts this year are neon green and purple, not a single color this time. Yesterday a hord of scouts ascended to the beach I think at least 400 and really they know how to make a noise and disturb the other people on the beach, even I moved..... That is just too much to handle, but on the sunny side it brought me closer to a very nice guy, he arrived shortly after my move on the beach. We exchanged some looks and once in the amazingly fresh ocean he started to talk, first in Spanish and after I let him know that mine is still below standard in broken English..... But enough to laugh en have a oral conversation. So I had a nice time and something nice to look at. All in all a good day. 

I am about to head out for another beach day although it will be short as rain is expected I for sure will enjoy my little moment away from kids and a lot of noisy video games.... So until later, not promising any more to write later, but it feels like I will pick this up again
