Chapter 139: Wild Camping
Before we knew it, Jessica and I had been driving in the car for a long time, and we had been driving along the north mountain road in Los Angeles from our home in Los Angeles, and we didn't know where we had gone, but there was no GPS to use in this era, so many times we had to memorize the street signs or something, otherwise we might not be able to drive back.
Of course, these problems are not a problem in Jessica's opinion, because Jessica is really, very good at recognizing the road, which I deeply understand, as long as Jessica is allowed to drive, there will basically be no situation where she can't find her way back after saying where to drive.
As a female driver, Jessica is really quite powerful, after all, many people may think that female drivers have some flaws in many aspects, but this point does not have much performance in Jessica, on the contrary, she is a very, very powerful driver, although she is a woman.
Jessica will be very stable when driving, giving people the feeling of a very experienced driver, so sitting in her car, I will have a very comfortable feeling, this feeling is really speechless, it is completely a pleasure, you will not feel how bumpy it is on a rough road, this is the weirdest thing.
Of course, the mountain roads in Los Angeles are actually fine, although there will be some areas with steeper slopes in some places, but generally speaking, they are relatively suitable for driving, in this case, Jessica drove the car and quickly climbed several mountains near Los Angeles, but we didn't seem to think about where to go, just drove like this, driving wherever we went, Jessica and I chatted about some things while driving.
I'm in a very good mood today, and I still make some jokes with Jessica from time to time, and of course I won't say some jokes that are too much, because after all, Jessica is driving at this time, and I can't distract her too much, after all, anything can happen on the road.
Jessica slowly increased the speed of the car later, I was discussing with her where to go today, Jessica didn't seem to have any ideas, she seemed to enjoy the process of driving, so as long as she kept driving, she would feel good, but we didn't have lunch when we came out today, and now the time has come to about one o'clock in the afternoon, we are going to find a place to get some food to eat, which is called camping.
To be honest, Jessica and I are preparing to spend a sweet two-person world in the wilderness today, and many places near Los Angeles are very, very beautiful, and the environment is very, very good, we parked our car near a gas station halfway up the mountain, and then hiked into a hillside with something.
We didn't walk long and came to a relatively flat place, and then we were ready to set up a tent, the quality of this tent we brought out is very good, it is a special field tent that Jessica and I bought before, this kind of tent has a very strong protective function, and it is said that it can protect against attacks from bears or wolves in the wild.
If you are camping in the United States, you must consider these problems, because there are really a lot of wild animals in the United States, this is a very beautiful country, and of course there will be many equally beautiful animals to share with the people here, so we must also think about how to live in harmony with these wild animals when we are in the wild.
After all, many times we enter their living territory, and we, as guests, should indeed have some respect for their owners, Jessica and I are both very nature-loving people, so we didn't bring guns and other self-defense tools when we came out, of course, knives and other things still have to be brought, but in the vicinity of Los Angeles, there is actually not much to worry about, because most of the places infested with large wild animals are national parks, There may be some small wildlife near Los Angeles, or wild animals like elk that are not very threatening to people.
At least from what Jessica and I have learned from other sources, there isn't much danger if we were just camping in the mountains near Los Angeles.
Of course, if there is a chance in the future, Jessica and I will still go to the United States to find some more primitive places to travel, and then there will really be some more dangerous wild animals in those places, and Jessica and I will have to think about more things, real wild animals still have a certain threat to people, so Jessica and I will definitely bring guns or other protective tools at that time.
But today we don't need to worry about those things, Jessica and I fell on the grass, watching the white clouds in the sky slowly drift past, this feeling is really a little too wonderful, because at this moment your heart will be very relaxed, this feeling is like you have also become white clouds, constantly floating in the sky.
"Jessica, if only I could lie like this all the time, what a wonderful thing it would be to lie like this with you, and let time freeze forever in this moment."
I gently grabbed Jessica's hand, and then we looked at each other, and there was love for each other in our eyes, and it was a really beautiful moment.
I kissed Jessica on the lips gently, and at this moment it was as if time had really stopped, and we could feel each other's body temperature and heartbeat, Jessica's heartbeat was so beautiful, I held Jessica tightly in my arms, as if if if she didn't do this, she would run away from me, and then Jessica and I both spoke to each other in a very gentle tone.
"Jessica, you said that we should build a house in the wild in the future, and then we can play in the wild anytime and anywhere."
"What's the point of repairing a house, we can buy an RV, live wherever we go, and then we can experience the beauty of living in different places."
"Now I kind of want the offseason to come a little earlier, but unfortunately it's only less than a quarter of the season, maybe a fifth if you count the playoffs, how do you feel like time flies so slowly!"
"Don't say that, time really doesn't pass slowly, and the more time we can spend together, the better, so wouldn't it be nice to have time go slower."
I couldn't help but nod my head after Jessica said this, agreeing with her, yes, it would be nice if time slowed down a little bit, and it would be great if we could spend more time together.
Actually, Jessica and I have been together for a long time now, but we are in love after all, so no matter how much it is, I won't feel too much, and the IQ of men and women in love may really drop significantly, at least from the current situation.
Jessica lay on her side with her head in my arms, and I put my hand around Jessica's shoulder, and we watched the clouds in the sky while humming a little song, and from time to time there would be some birds floating in the sky, some of them in groups of threes and fives, some flying alone, and some in pairs.
"Jessica, I've heard that there's a bird that they have only one mate for their entire life and is a symbol of love, do you know what kind of bird it is?"
Jessica shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.
I gently stroked Jessica's smooth blonde hair with my hand, then kissed her on the forehead and said:
"That kind of bird is called the mandarin duck, which is a legendary bird in a distant country, and the so-called mandarin duck playing in the water, flying with wings, are beautiful birds that symbolize love."
"How free the birds are, no wonder many people envy the lives of birds."
"Yes, but although the real life of birds may not be as beautiful as we imagined, when we humans see them flying freely in the air, we humans still have a yearning, which is a kind of human nature!"
I said to Jessica as I watched the birds drift by in the sky.
"If you had the opportunity to become an animal, would you like to be a bird flying in the sky, or a beast running on the ground, or a fish swimming in the water?"
"I, I don't want it, I'm going to be me, and then I can stay with you and fly together!"
Jessica's pretty face turned red after hearing this, in fact, she has been with Jessica for a while, and she still looks so cute and touching from time to time, just like when we first met.
The good times were short-lived, and then our stomachs started to growl, so Jessica and I had to get up and get some food before we thought about anything else.
Jessica set up the barbecue stand and I set up the tent, and we're going to stay here for a while today, because the view is pretty good, and we're already some distance from Los Angeles, so it doesn't seem like we should drive too far.
So I discussed it with Jessica, and after the barbecue, we went to the nearby place to have a good time and feel the beauty of this wild world, and Jessica also agreed with my idea.
So then we put up the barbecue grill, and then took a chicken and some other ingredients from some of the barbecue we carried with us, and we didn't just barbecue, because if we just ate barbecue, there would be a little nutritional imbalance, so we also brought some vegetables to barbecue when we came out.
Jessica is actually very talented in cooking, which can already be seen when we went to study that dark restaurant before, and now that I think about it, the owner of that dark restaurant makes a lot of food really special, because if we had changed, we might not have the imagination to make so many kinds of food.
In fact, creating a new kind of food is really not that simple, in addition to imagination, you must have some special talents, not everyone can create how to create food.
Jessica is also quite good at cooking, I don't know if it's the first time she's doing a barbecue in the wild, anyway, these meats can be turned into very delicious food in her hands, and she seems quite sophisticated when it comes to controlling the heat and putting spices.
"Jessica, have you ever had a barbecue in the wild before?"
I saw Jessica nod slightly, acknowledging this.
"When I was young, my parents used to take me out to barbecue, and our family would take turns to barbecue, so I really miss the time with my parents!"
I didn't know when Jessica's eyes began to become teary, so I had to put my arm around Jessica's shoulders and whispered to comfort her, telling her that I was always by her side, and I would always be with her, and give her happiness instead of her parents.
Jessica quickly smiled, wiped the tears from her eyes, and laughed as we ate Jessica's barbecue.
It's so unreal, because it's so beautiful, it doesn't seem real, it's like everything is a dream, and I'm afraid that when I wake up suddenly, I find that it's not real, it's just my dream imagination.
Speaking of dreams, in fact, there are a few times when the scene in the dream is quite similar to today, I really dreamed of camping and barbecue with Jessica in the wild, but the situation at that time was still a little different from now, for example, when I was with Jessica in the dream, I would have a particularly unreal feeling, as if I knew in the dream that it was just a dream.
I don't know if anyone feels the same way as me, that is, in some dreams, it is really possible for individuals to know or feel that they are in a dream.
Maybe it's not an accident or a strange situation, maybe it's really because we think about it day and night, maybe I've been subconsciously longing to be able to go camping with Jessica in the wilderness, and now it's a dream come true, and it's a really good feeling.
Jessica's hand around my shoulder became tighter, and I hugged Jessica even tighter, her blonde hair was so soft, so beautiful, and there was a special fragrance, a unique fragrance of a girl.
Jessica and I have very good appetites today, the two of us have eaten about a few pounds of meat, in fact, the price of meat in the United States is really very cheap, because agriculture and animal husbandry in the United States are very, very developed, so you can eat all kinds of meat food in the United States, and eat a different meat food every day, which can last for a long time.
Of course, there is still a certain difference between the meat bought in the supermarket and the meat freshly killed in some farms, Jessica and I are also planning to go to some wild farms to eat barbecue if we have the opportunity in the future, we have actually eaten that kind of barbecue on the farm once, and I feel that the fresh meat will definitely taste better if it is tested, of course, the barbecue we carried out today is also very good.
I ate Jessica's roasted meat, and it felt very sweet and delicious anyway, as if I couldn't stop at all, and Jessica also looked at me blankly, looking at my very greedy look, and she smiled unconsciously.
Jessica, Jessica, why are you so cute!
I kept saying in my heart that Jessica's smile was so sweet at this time, like a good wife and mother, and it was not the first time I thought that Jessica would be a good wife and mother, this feeling had appeared a long time ago, and then it has appeared in recent times.
Of course, Jessica will definitely not only want to be a good wife and mother, I know that Jessica's heart is more yearning for a free life, not just a life of staying at home all day, if I can give Jessica that life, I will be willing to let her be free forever, because just like a bird, no matter how beautiful a bird loses its freedom and is locked in a cage, then this bird will not be happy.
I don't want Jessica to be a caged bird like that, I want her to be free and happy forever, can this simple wish come true, maybe it can be fulfilled.
After eating, Jessica and I started to walk on the grass hand in hand, after all, we both ate a lot of food, and if we ate so much meat and didn't do some exercise, it was inevitable that we would have indigestion, and I was very experienced in this.
Of course, it's not suitable for strenuous exercise after eating, so Jessica and I just took a slow walk at a certain pace, holding hands and rocking back and forth, admiring the scenery around us as we walked, and Jessica was also a very observant person.
After all, this is inherited from her ancestors' genes, so many times Jessica is even able to notice a lot of things that I didn't notice, which has happened more than once.
