WTF happened to FPH (Adult)

Right.

The Burning Bush was a woman on a Canyon river trip many years ago. I can't even remember her name or who she came with. She wasn't a river runner or even any kind of outdoorsy person, but someone who was just looking for some adventure. She was from a big city back East (can't remember which one), although Chicago is ringing a bell. She had really red hair, not kind of a redhead, but a real carrot top. In fact, she had red hair all over. Copious amounts of red hair.

You have to know a little about Canyon trips. You set off for 2 or 3 weeks into a glorious, spectacular place. Every day is stunning beauty - it's the Grand Canyon after all. You're outdoors all day, wind, sun, rain, sun, snow, sleet, sun, hot, cold, wet, dry. There is no escaping the fact you're outdoors all day. Cook outdoors, sleep outdoors, hike, run big whitewater - it's really the best fun. Some people don't like it and I imagine it could be a miserable experience for them, especially given the fact that there is really almost no way out once you start. For a lot of people, though, it becomes a spiritual experience. You leave all that is familiar behind and deal with Mother Nature on her terms. Spiritual experience might be a little light. Profound spiritual experience might be more appropriate, especially for first-timers, especially for people who are not used to spending a lot of time outdoors and ESPECIALLY for the Burning Bush.

Burning Bush got her mojo going early, grabbed the experience with both hands and took it right where she wanted it. It usually takes people 2 or 3 days to get in the groove but not the Burning Bush. She wasted no time. We were still on Day 1 when she decided her way of dealing with Mother Nature was to do it au naturel, and not just part of the time. That woman was practically naked the entire trip. Nudity on river trips is not unusual, but she set a standard that I doubt will ever be repeated (there is a lot of sun down there and some body parts really don't like getting sunburnt). We insisted she wear a life jacket and shoes while on the water, but other than that she was pretty much in the buff.

She was an attractive woman and it was certainly OK that she was naked, but (as anyone who has hung out on nude beaches or resorts or just around a lot of naked people can attest) after awhile you kind of stop noticing that people are naked and they're just the people they are. Admittedly there's kind of a prurient reaction at first (at least for me), but that fades in not a real long amount of time. The really cool thing is that she was having a GREAT time. Maybe she came looking for a spiritual experience, maybe not, but she sure as hell found one. It was truly wonderful and enlivening to see a person embracing it all to that degree. Her enthusiasm was contagious and she added a wonderful flavor to the trip. I can't imagine that it didn't change her life and that she keeps that experience in a place in her mind where it affects her to this day. For all I know, she ditched her life and is guiding in the Canyon now - that would not surprise me.

As for the Burning Bush part - that's what we started calling her - I did mention she had copious amounts of red hair, right?

 

Love it!

 

Love it too Bob! Sounds like it was a very very memorable trip for you.

 

Sounds like a wonderful adventure Bob and the scenery, wow, must had been fantastic, um, any pics?

I went on a similar trip once but it involve peyote buttons and I was nowhere near the grand canyon, or water, or other people but I do remember a burning bush.

 

Wow what an awesome compliment I am flattered, but, um,m, What was number one?

 

They are all memorable trips for whatever reasons, sometimes good, sometimes bad. That group of people was a rough, reckless bunch, but a lot of fun. I've been boating with so many people that I can't remember most of them. Sometimes people will stop me on the street in Flagstaff (it's a small town) and start talking to me like they know me and I finally make the connection that we must have done a river together sometime when they say, "So, are you getting on the water any these days?"

Dog - Sadly, no pics of the Burning Bush, er, that trip in particular.

 

Just wanted to bump a funny thread! Needed a laugh today--and this is just the post to do it

Thanks, Seadog!

I agree

 

Somebody asked me about this today so

Bump

 

Absolutely hilarious! You are a funny, funny, man!
BTW..when I posted this reply, there were 69 replies. LOL

Pssssssssst.....I thought the "P" stood for pussy....like in cat...oh yeah! Must be a Jersey thing.

Did you know that after several years of waxing that hair away, it stops growing back?

Thongs can be very......stimulating...if you get what I mean.

I love this thread!
LMAO

 

I loved this story, Bob! You have a talent for narrative.

 

Anybody know how this Brazilian Wax got started?

Was it porn?

Was it prostitutes that got tired of getting crabs?

Or was it girls gone wild?

Or what?

I don't know if it's fact or fiction, but I read that somes cultures had women remove all body hair, except on their heads.

Did it begin as a cultural thing?

 

It must be a new thing because I have a playboy from 78' and nobody has a Brazilian wax job.

I could not imagine getting that done, I would just leave my bearded clam alone!

 

You get used to it.

We women are strong when it comes to pain!

After awhile, the hair stops growing back.

It makes that area very sensitive to the touch, if you know what I mean.

Or so I've been told.

 

Oh, ok I get it now I always wondered about that, my lady has a piercing down there.

 

Now THAT is something I would never do.

Too much maintenance. Not hygienic, and feeling it all the time??? Uh uh

¥. €. LOL.

G.

 

What did I just do editing it, I wanted to post it as a new reply.
