In the mid 90’s, after college and before I really got started in my career… I was invited to go to an Indigo Girls/Lilith Fair outdoor concert up in Seattle. I lived in Santa Cruz at the time, and the idea of a road trip up there was so, so attractive to me.
… as was a friend and companion of mine, whom we will call ‘K’ for privacy. She was just shy of 5′ tall, light skin, curvy in all the right ways, a bit of padding where it counts, with intensely bright wide open eyes, dimples, and a mop of curly hair down to her shoulders. She also lived in the Bay Area, so we hung out on IRC a lot and had met a few times in person at various social events.
We agreed to share the cost of the road trip up, and to meet up with another couple we knew up in Oregon to go to the concert together.. ‘C’ and her boyfriend ‘S’. The trip is about 11 hours or so of non-stop driving in my Eagle Talon sports car, so K and I had plenty of time to spend with each other along the way.
