They did for the most part, save the almost translucent patch that stuck to her pink lips. A nod from him had her peeling them off and leaving them ar...und her ankles. One leg lifted so she could plant a foot on the desk and the other dropped over the edge, taking her panties with it. She knew he could see her trembling but she wasn't sure if it was more from excitement or nerves and she wasn't sure which excited him greater. Taking two fingers, she spread her lips wide for him and she groaned. I finally kicked myself off of dead center and had them try out my .44-40 Winchester. The main thing that I was concerned about was the recoil. I hoped that they could handle the .44-40 rifle simply because it would simplify the ammunition situation. However, that was not such a big deal as long as we had the use of the wagon. If they could not use the .44-40 rifle, we would drop back to the .38-40, which was actually .40 caliber and should have been called a .40-38. I wonder who screwed that. 357 magnum Smith and Wesson revolver, the very handgun that she trained on me when she kicked me out. While she could still threaten me with other things, the gesture of selling the very weapon used on me was more than symbolic. It struck me is a ceremonial severing of ties with her past attitude. For those reasons, I breathed a bit easier and chose to give her second chance. There wouldn’t be a third chance and I told her that, too, though I didn’t mention my plans for arson if she broke her. Soon, the edge of the park came into view, and watersparkled in the distance. As they drew nearer, the sounds of music andcelebration grew louder and louder, and presently they had a panoramic viewof the park. It took their breath away. Perhaps as many as a two hundredthousand people packed the area. It looked almost like a giant, multicoloredflowerbed, the blossoms swaying back and forth in the breeze. The lake, too,was full of people, wading, swimming, splashing, and floating on airmattresses.
