I always wondered what Ellery would be like if he was truly away from his job, all of his responsibilities, and his normal inhibiting social factors!

And I guess now we know! LOL!  I do like hearing your thought process, Louise.  It gives me some insight as to why and how your characters are so real!

“Cause it’s a nude beach is why.”

 :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:  Oh, Louise, this is too funny!  Colson on a nude beach - with Howard Hughes no less!  All I can say is, Wes better not call again and ask how they're doing .......  this is definitely something he doesn't need to know!  LOL! 

This is so much fun.... thanks!

I am sure trying to make it fun.  So far Colson isn't enjoying himself too too much!!!

I feel for Colson - this is a lot for him to take in at once .... but I do understand Ellery's desire to throw caution to the wind and just be FREE for a change.  And I think in the long run this will be good for Colson, too - I hope!

“I ain’t takin my clothes off,” Colson warned once more.

“Ya don’t have to.”

Hmmm... well, I guess that remains to be seen!   :laugh:  Thanks, Louise.

This story is so much fun Louise.

But I'm wondering if, after this trip Colson will ever agree to go on holiday again... :-\  ;D

Hmmm, I'm hoping that the beach won't be crowded (or better, completely empty LOL). Maybe that way Colson might lighten up a bit.

Looking forward to the next chapter Louise. Thanks.  :)
