Mmmmm, yes. My wife and I have a healthy relationship, and one of my favorite “bored at work, thinking about sweetie” images is us, together, in a jacuzzi, on the side deck of our cabin at a resort on an island in the San Juans. (The lubrication thing is a concern in hot tubs, as has been mentioned, but there are, um, logistical approaches to minimize the issue.) It was ten o’clock at night, the air was cold and crisp, the sky was clear and full of stars, the trees around us were tall black shadows disappearing upward… The hot water on my legs was a bracing contrast to the cold on my chest and shoulders… Our cabin faced the water, with another island across the channel maybe half a mile away… Anybody passing by in a boat, or on the opposite beach with a telescope, who happened to look up at the right time, well, there we were.

_ **sigh…** _ 🆒
