Rowen’s Adventures At Kink Camp

campA few weeks ago, after ascertaining if I had a drivers’ license, a friend of mine asked me if I wanted to go with him to an adult sleep away camp… thing. What’s an adult sleep away camp… thing?

Well, at the time, I didn’t really know. He said it was a part of a group of adults who are pretty much fall into the category of “other.” Poly, bi, trans, gay, etc., and almost all into some form of kink.

We’ve been lucky that we have gone on a few snow vacations out West, and we go visit my family in Panama every few years, but we decided to start putting away some money so we can go on a mini vacation/honeymoon. The problem is that there are too many options: do we go to an all-inclusive in the Caribbean where we can lay on the beach for a few days and order drinks that come with mini-umbrellas? Do we go somewhere fun in the US we’ve never been to before, like Chicago? Do we go back to New York, Key West, or San Francisco?  Continue reading →
