Like my other Wild Oats stories, this took place in the 1970's. Sally believed in sex and successfully separated sex from love which can be without sex.

"Jason, have you ever been to Cedar Key?"
"Where is that?"
"It's about an hour or two North of here. It's an old fishing village that goes back before the Civil War. The Island Hotel has been around since 1859 and might be a fun place to stay overnight."
"When are you thinking about?"
"Next week we both have the same two days off. Are you interested?"
"Sounds like fun. Let's do it."
We drove up to Cedar Key and arrived about 3 in the afternoon. We registered at the Island Hotel on 2nd Street and were assigned a room with a shared bathroom down the hall. Remember, this was in the 1970's, since then the hotel has remodeled, reduced the number of available rooms to 10 and now has in-room facilities.
We explored the village hand-in-hand and returned to the hotel for dinner which included heart of palm salad which was one of their specialties.
We had traveled light with just a small duffle bag apiece - just enough to hold essentials and a change of clothing.
About 9:00 we retired to our room. We got naked and then I put on a thin T-shirt to visit the bathroom down the hall.
