The home place is on my granddad’s ranch, where my mom and her brother grew up. My uncle died in Vietnam, leaving only my mom. She went to Smith in the east, and was involved in the anti-war movement. That’s how she met my dad.
My brother and I grew up on the ranch, too--or at least until we were 11 and 12. We moved to Cheyenne then, partly for schooling, and partly because of my dad’s business. My mom’s folks staked him, and he bought a small bank there. He now owns four banks in county seats around Wyoming. They are small, but they are well run and profitable and actually stuffed with deposits. You’d be surprised at how much cash some of these ranchers have in the bank. Some day they’ll probably be sold to some big chain and there’ll be some real money there.”
(Later, we learned the whole story. Back about 1915, Steve’s great-granddad, seeing what was happening around Wyoming, didn’t want to have a lot of outsiders coming in and drilling and digging on his land. So he went out and managed to buy up the mineral rights for his ranch, and, while he was at it, he bought the mineral rights for several of his neighbors’ ranches too, so they wouldn’t be bothered. Decades passed. His son, Steve’s granddad, now turns out to be the biggest holder of subsurface rights in Carbon County, and a lot of his neighbors’ ranches are now owned by big out of state corporations. By the 1970?s these gas and oil rights were incredibly valuable, and he’s been collecting on both leases and royalties. Mark and he are each beneficiaries of big trust funds, and one day they will inherit it all. For the present, however, Steve is happy with his tee shirts and an old Honda. We learned about the Boxster a little later.)
“Anyway, Mark and I grew up on the ranch. We learned to help with the haying and help with calving, and the usual sort of ranch chores, milking our milk cows. When we were really little we had our own ponies, and soon we had our own horses--still do in fact. As soon as school was out, we’d go back to the ranch for the entire summer, and we’re still doing that. It’s incredibly beautiful out there, like a paradise. We’re fairly passable ranch hands, and can mend fences and all sorts of crappy stuff like that, and we’re damn good at handling cattle.
Big thing for us in the late summer is rodeo. Mark, and me--we’ve been a calf roping team for years, and we’re pretty good. It takes a lot of practice and teamwork, and the more you work together the better you get. That’s why a lot of the teams are brothers or cousins, guys who work together season after season. Our other event’s totally different. Bareback riding. Thing about it is that, it’s really close to gymnastics. It’s all a matter of balance and timing and practice (and, he didn’t add, but it was perfectly obvious, really good abs). Course you have to know your horses, too. We’ve both won a few events, at least at the county level.”
Steve just went on, “Me and Mark, we always work together if we can, no matter what the job is. And the last two summers especially, since Mark’s been at Wharton. It’s the first time we’ve ever been apart, and, frankly, it’s killing us both.”
“Why did you guys go to different schools then?” I asked.
At this Steve, who always seemed to have a smile on his face, clouded up noticeably. “Well, Mark was accepted to Wharton, and in his freshman year there, we got some really bad luck. My grandpa had a serious stroke and he’ll never get better, and in fact he can’t last too much longer. My grandma’s heart condition worsened, and it keeps her mostly bedridden these days. And, (here Steve began softly to sob,), my mom was diagnosed with a kind of bone marrow cancer. It doesn’t hurt; it doesn’t even restrict your activity; it only kills you!”
I enfolded him in my arms, and he began to weep uncontrollably, shaking all over. I cradled his head on my chest, and bent my head down and kissed his hair, and stroked his arm. Neither Mike nor I knew what to say; or more properly, we both knew not to say anything. After a while, his sobs subsided, and he very tenderly acknowledged my comforting pets with a few awkward touches of his own, and he shyly and softly kissed my cheek. But it was a while before he could go on with the story.
“So for sure she’s going to die. All three of them are going to die,” and again he fell helplessly into sobbing again, as hard as before. There was nothing to do but continue to hold the darling boy, and maybe kiss his ear a little. Eventually he regained his composure and again resumed his story.
“So there was no way that I was going to leave them to go east. I had been admitted to Penn, just like Mark; but instead I enrolled at Wyoming. Laramie is only about an hour from the ranch and maybe 45 minutes from the house, and I can be either place any time they need me. Actually, they don’t ‘need’ me for anything. My grandparents have a ranch manager and ranch hands and caretakers and nurses and whatever, and my mom has all the care she needs. As I said her day-to-day life is not really affected much. But while they don’t ‘need’ me, I know they want me around, they love to see me, and I want to be around for them too. Really, I’m trying to be around for Mark too, since he isn’t here. Because he’d already started at Penn, Mom and Dad didn’t want him to change. So what happened is that we’ve been split up for the last three years, except for holidays and the summers.”
Steve thought a bit, and then continued, “God, I look forward to the summers and Mark coming back! I know you’ll think it’s silly, but when I’m at home, I always sleep in his bed. Of course for the last three years I’ve slept in it about ten times more than he has, but for me it’s always ‘his’ bed. I don’t think I could really sleep in my bed alone. Actually, even when he’s home, I sleep in his bed, because these days now that we’ve been apart so much, we always sleep together whenever we can.”
This seemed like an important and very interesting subject, but by now everybody was so exhausted that we just lapsed into silence for a while. This day wasn’t turning out the way we had all expected.
Close to Evanston, Wyoming, we stopped at a gas station. Once again, we thee guys kinda brightened the place up, and again, heads turned. It was partly us I guess, and partly the Boxster we were hauling. Anyway, we got plenty of attention. After filling up, we went into the Albertson’s next door, and got some stuff for sandwiches and some fruit, and once we were across the line in Utah we found a turn-off to a ranch-to-market road, and from that took a long lane that presumably led to a ranch somewhere, but it didn’t look as if it’d had any traffic on it for months. It crossed a little draw and there was a little grove of cottonwoods, and there we parked. Over a somewhat dusty but flat area under the trees, we spread a couple of the extra the blanket-like furniture covers that came with the rental truck, and had our lunch. It was simple and it didn’t take much time, but the situation was very pleasant.
Lying on our backs we could look up through the canopy of the cottonwoods and see an occasional puffy cumulous cloud drifting across, somehow emphasizing the sky’s incredible blueness. It must have been about 78 degrees there in the grove and there was the slightest breeze from the west. Because the furniture covers, even two together, were not large; we’d had to arrange ourselves in sort of a triangle so that we all fit. Staring at the sky, I used Mickey’s thigh as a pillow, and Steve’s hair occasionally brushed against my calf as he looked upward. Looking over to Mike’s face to make some idle remark, my cheek was resting in the thick golden hair of his thigh.
It was an idea of heaven. Glancing up to him, I saw his beautiful face above his magnificently furred belly and chest, and, I was right there with my face on the thigh of the man I had idolized all my life! And just barely shifting my gaze I saw the unbelievably cut body of my new friend, with his head right against my own leg. A new friend, yes, but our friendship seemed so intimate and intense and well-founded upon real sympathy, that I felt as though it was a relationship that would continue on and on and on, some way or other, I knew not how. Glancing back up at my uncle, while I saw his face, I also saw up the leg of his shorts and his cockhead, which was barely covered by it. No longer was I interested in the passing clouds; I became fixated on my uncle’s sex. He noticed my glance--no it was more like a stare--at once, and his penis responded by first chubbing up, and then, as it begin to fully expand, it strained against the little running short in a way that was obviously uncomfortable. I reached over toward his shorts and gave them a little tug and he raised his butt off the blanket so that I could slip them off. Steve of course watched this little by-play, and he ran his hand up into the leg of my short to touch my throbbing penis, and I immediately raised my butt and he wriggled the shorts off. Mike, in turn, scooted his big shoulders just a couple of inches closer to Steve’s leg, and then reached over and freed Steve’s cock, totally erect now.
So there we were. I had my head on Mike’s thigh, face toward his groin; Steve scooched back and rolled a little onto his side, planted his head on my thigh; and Mike worked his way over to Steve’s leg. I had my hand on Mike’s phallus, Mike on Steve’s, and Steve on mine. We were remarkably at peace, in the little grove, and in no particular hurry. I didn’t begin to jack my uncle off. Instead, I was in a really great situation to examine, tickle, admire, and fondle his big hairy balls. I held them in my hand, gently let them come back to rest on his upper thigh, and then described tiny letters on them with the tip of one finger: I * L * O * V * E * Y * O * U * M * I * K * E. Of course I doubt he understood the message literally, but I’m sure he understood it emotionally. Meanwhile Steve had raised himself on one elbow and again had my cock in his mouth. This time he wasn’t situated so well to use whatever magic he had back in the bed in the guest room yesterday morning, when he fellated me so gently and mysteriously that I wasn’t even sure what was happening (other than that I was in a kind of paradise) but he had other arts, other ways of driving me fucking crazy with his tongue and lips. Under his influence, I wanted to do to Mike exactly what Steve was doing to me, and so I dropped the worship of his testicles and moved over and covered his phallus with my mouth. And whenever Steve spiraled his tongue over my glans, I did the same to Mike; when Steve licked my shaft like a Popsicle, so I did to Mike; when Steve used his hand and lips together, so likewise did I to Mike. I thought it was a tribute to both Steve and to Mike. I couldn’t tell exactly what Mike was doing to Steve, but it obviously was similar.
At a certain point, Mike released Steve, and said, “Hold it, guys.” I think he was very close to popping. He lay back a moment, resting his head on the blanket, and we did likewise. Then with a brief circular gesture of his hand, he indicated his plan. With a fair amount of ‘rearrangement’-- basically each of us rotated, so that our feet were where our heads had been, everything was as it had been before, except I was returning to Steve his love to me; and Mike was doing to me what I had been doing to him; and so with Steve and Mike.
After the shift we started slowly and deliberately again, but somewhere somebody picked up the tempo, and the change instantly propagated through the whole tiny loving circuit. Soon I couldn’t last another moment under Mike’s insistence, and I released Steve from my mouth, but not my hand, and with two or three specially intense strokes, I brought Steve off in a gusher, his cum spraying over both Mike and me in gout after gout. At almost the same instant, I exploded into Mike’s mouth, and I soon saw Mike grow more rigid, tremble again and again, and collapse, as Steve smiled, cum leaking from his lips. I was the only one without cum in his mouth, but I leaned over and gave Steve a deep, deep kiss that lasted most of a minute; and when I collapsed again, I had the now familiar taste of Mike on my lips and tongue.
Once again we lay there in repose, joy in our souls, love in our hearts. But after a while we realized that the road called again. We put back on our shorts, and packed up the lunch things, and began wondering how the fuck we were going to get the truck with the Porsche in tow turned around. We drove on several hundred yards further, and eventually we came to a rather derelict cattle-loading ramp. It was situated in a hard packed area off the lane easily big enough to pull the truck and the Porsche around in a big loop, and so we headed back, and soon were on I-80 West again. And it was early afternoon on the fourth day of our trip . To be continued.

My mother married young; I was born when she was only 18. Her younger brother was only 6 when I was born. We lived only three doors away from mom's folks, and my uncle was like a god to me. When I was 9, he was 15, and kayaking in the Pennsylvania mountains, and shooting rats at the Doylestown borough dump. He was the star on his high school baseball team, an enormously talented second
This wasn't the typical 'motel,' but a 'motor hotel,' and our room was on the third floor, and its easterly windows faced a large pasture; we had not pulled the drapes closed and morning sun filled the room and slanted across the bed--and across me, still safely in the arms of my dear uncle, my face buried in his fuzzy chest. The raking rays brightly picked out his manly, but angelic face, and
Off a small road in north-central Indiana, we pulled into an obviously little used lane between a wood lot and a pasture. And 500 feet down the lane there was a turnout to a rutted drive into the wood lot, where we turned in. We got from the cooler the last of the egg salad sandwiches and carrot sticks my mom had packed for us, and had a pleasant little picnic parked in the shady grove, with
We stopped in Galena, Illinois that night; early enough to check into a motel, and quickly getting some directions from the desk clerk, went out for a brisk four-mile run around the pretty old town. We ran in just the same shorts we’d being “wearing” all day. My uncle was a regular jogger, and in great shape, but since I’d been in training for three sports all the year round, I found it was no
Mike dialed Alice’s number, and getting her machine, left a message. We went out to grab some supper, and, getting back to the room, we stripped down for bed, planning to get up early the next day: We had a long haul, planning to make it all the way to Cheyenne. We crawled into the queen bed, leg to leg, shoulder to shoulder, and divided up this morning’s New York Times. The phone rang. Mike
The next morning, I awoke spooned with my uncle, my back and rear tight against his firm but plush chest and belly, one of his wonderful arms draped around my waist; and my head lay upon the bicep of his other, folded arm. Leaving his left arm on my stomach where it was, he pulled the other one away, and leaned upon his elbow, and tenderly kissed my ear, and whispered, “Good morning, Little
We had been in the truck for hours and hours and were ready for some stretching. We stopped at a big rest stop, and after answering the call of nature, Mike went to the back of the truck and rummaged through the cardboard box of miscellaneous stuff he’d cleaned out of his closet back home and grabbed his old football. The three of us (in just our running shorts) ran a few laps around the picnic
Upstairs, Mike and I climbed into the big king bed in the guest room, frankly exhausted. And moments later, just as Mike was getting ready to click off the bedside lamp, Steve, like us totally nude, entered the room and said, “Guys, can I sleep with you?” With the brightest of smiles we kicked back the covers and reached out and pulled him in. Three things I already knew about Steve, who was
As he lay between my legs, Steve and I were still grasping each other’s arms. His arms were extended over his head to meet mine, as I reached down to hold his. He let loose of my left arm and reached over and took Mike’s right hand in his, and squeezed both Mike’s hand and my right arm. He said, “The other thing I want is that I can’t stand to part from you guys yet. I want to stay with you
Steve had emptied out his backpack and put in a clean tee shirt and shorts, his little toilet kit, and he was ready to roll, almost. He also stuck in a big envelope. Outside, he asked Mike to back the truck up to the garage, and he gestured to a large outbuilding close by. It had a conventional door on one end, and four overhead doors on each long side of the building. Steve and I entered
“So what about this ranch?” I asked, changing the conversation’s direction. “Well,” Steve said, “I’d better start at the beginning. My mom’s folks own a ranch. Technically, I suppose, you’d have to say they own two ranches, but they are side by side and these days operated as one. They located in Carbon County. Rawlins is the county seat; we went through there about two hours after we

After Mike and Steve had their shower, and they dressed, this time in tee shirts and shorts, it was at last time to part. Steve drew a big envelope from his backpack, and handed it to Mike. "It's a set of photos of me, and a some of me and Mark together. I have your addresses, and as soon as I have developed and printed the pix I shot back home, I'll mail you copies." He and Mike embraced
This is the account of an incident that occurred to my then 24-year-old uncle, Mike, late in May, in London. Mike and his fiancée, Alice, are principals in the series Alice, My Uncle and Me, and Cross-Country with My Uncle. He got on at the Knightsbridge tube station. He was remarkably good looking, after the English fashion. Trim, close to six feet, probably about 25, with light brown hair
Piers fixed the right ankle restraint, and then the left, and Mike was fully displayed in all his glory and beauty. In Piers’ earphones, he heard the familiar disembodied voice giving the reading, averaging the current inputs from the spectators moving their dials, but what the voice was saying was, in Piers’ experience, almost never heard: “Nine point five. [pause] Nine point six. [pause].
