Old sightings out in nature

[Carb0nBased 549]

There are a bunch of old pee-related incidents that I shared back on Peesearch when it was still in existence, but now that is gone from the web. And now we have our own Sarah_Hiker here who might appreciate some of them.

Anyway, back quite a few years ago I used to be a member of a hiking group. It was run by a guy who always used to bring wine with him, and encourage other members to do it too. He made quite a deal about how it was all about creating community, but I wonder if he just liked to drink in nature and wanted others to do it with so he wouldn't be alone. Anyway, being a hiking group of course there were people who needed to pee anyway, and the wine drinking in places far from any bathroom almost certainly added to this state of affairs. Even with the wine, even the most extroverted women in this group were the proper type who didn't start casually peeing in the open, so there aren't any super juicy sightings, but there still were some interesting moments. Anyway, here are a few memorable moments from those hikes.

Two of them concern a woman who was up there in years, and single living alone. She was a reserved lady in her "day life" but when she started to drink she turned into a party girl, laughing and acting a bit wild. So one of the hikes that she was on was to a beach where when the tide is low enough, it's possible to round a point to a "secret" second beach that is hidden and otherwise inaccessible. A few of us went in small groups over there to explore and came back. Then, after the wine was all finished, a few of us noticed that the hike leader had disappeared.

We figured he had gone around the point to the other beach, and one of us went over there to look for him. He or she came back to say that the hike leader had been over there, sitting and joking with the older "party girl". It seemed to us like he'd probably hit on her and they were flirting. On the way back to the car, I asked the leader about what had happened over there, and he said that he had run into the "party girl" peeing on the other beach when he first got over there! Meanwhile, there's a small outhouse along the trail partway between the trailhead and the beach, and we stopped there because some people had to pee. There were far more desperate people than there were toilets (namely one!) so a bunch of people went behind it into the bushes. I tried looking casually over there but someone saw me and said it wasn't very nice so I turned around.

Another situation involving the same older woman happened on a short, easy, level hike to a picnic area. This time, the "party girl" got so drunk that some others had to basically half-carry her the whole way back to the cars to keep her from falling down. At one point she needed to stop to pee, and the people helping her had to guide her into the bushes. Again I tried to glance over there but this time her helpers yelled at me not to look (and they didn't either). But she was still right behind the bushes by all of us. A hot moment even though I think more of us felt rather sorry for her.

So another experience from the same group:

I also met a woman through this group, who I later went hiking with several times just the two of us. She was a young to middle aged Asian woman, very easy to talk with but introverted and sensitive. We met on the very first hike I was ever on with that group, and coincidentally one of the first things I saw her do (before she and I had even begun chatting) was walk back along the trail with some other women to the parking lot where they had gone to pee before the rest of us arrived. I didn't at the time know if she was interested in me as just a friend and hiking buddy or as something more, but it turned out she was likely a lesbian, which I found out when she invited me to a party that turned out to be an LGBT event.

Almost every time I was hiking with her, either with the group or not, she would either go into the bushes at the beginning to pee, or would stop somewhere along the way and hide in the bushes. She was very shy and this extended to peeing, even though she was interning to become a nurse at the time, in fact she would use clinical language like "I need to void my bladder" rather than "I need to pee". While in some ways she clearly trusted me and opened up to me about some rather heavy emotional stuff going on with people she knew, she never became comfortable enough to go in view of me though (or anyone else, as far as I know). Though I wonder if SOME of that had to do with the fact that I was going through some very significant mental health challenges at the time, and a decent amount of our conversation naturally gravitated toward my problems. I could tell that being quite empathic she was personally affected by my own distress and this probably didn't put her in the most relaxed mood when we were together. I also don't know what would have happened had I stepped off the trail for a pee myself on one of our one on one hikes. Again, if I had been in a better place at the time I may well have eventually done this.
