SqrlCub: the OP reminds me of my young naive days, dancing at the gay club (the ONLY place with decent music!!) at the Halloween bash. I was just happily grooving when my friend Michael pulls me off the floor. Apparently the two men in togas dancing beside me were having sex and I didn’t notice. Which would have been funny except that one of them was Michael’s soon-to-be-ex.

Places I can remember aren’t that unusual:  
In the woods (BAD idea)…think “mosquitos.”  
In a car (BAD idea)…think “getting caught by police.”  
In a hot spring (BAD idea)…water makes the whole process so uncomfortable!

All in all, I think I’ll just stay home from now on, thanks.

On the floor of the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. All in the name of research, of course L

Hey, Flora, whutchoo sayin’ about B’more??!

_grins_

here’s my list:

On a park bench, outside in the rain, wearing a leather jacket, spike heels, & stockings with zippers up the backs.

On the beach at a wildlife refuge.

In a group under the flagpole in college.

On the floor of a hotel room while my dad slept in the bed.

On the desk of the Secretary for Alumni Affairs (also in college)

In the bathroom at Club Midnite (sadly, unlike SqrlCub, I lack the guts to get it on out on the dance floor)

In the parking lot of the correctional facility down the street

&, if fingerfucking counts, in Professor Brien’s Existentialism class.

In a crane? I thought this would suddenly turn into a wickedly interesting thread. It could have been something like when Luke hid out in the Bantha (or whatever it was called) in the _Empire Strikes Back_.

HUGS!

Sorry Sqrl, but this was just your ordinary run of the mill in the back of a crane (on the flatbed part) next to a major expressway in the middle of a construction yard in broad daylight kinda thing…no Banthas here babe.

Innumerouse times in moving cars…waaay fun.  
In a hotel room with my fiance’s mom asleep in the bed next to us.  
In a bathroom at a strip mall.  
In a small shower (2’x2’)  
In the Mediteranian Sea.  
Couple of parking lots  
In the back room of the bar I worked out…no door and anybody could have seen from the front.  
And my crowning glory…  
On a 1500 year old alter in Sicily with a tour group 20 feet away.
