From Tip to Top - The Journey of a Lifetime From Chile to Alaska

Summary

Peter Murtagh decided it was time to embark on 'The Great Retirement Project' - riding a motorbike from Tierra Del Fuego at the very southern tip of South America, to the most northerly point in Alaska, alone and without the pressure of any deadline.
Aged 69, just him, a tent, a bike and a sleeping bag.
En route, Peter explored magical, wonderful and extraordinarily out-of-the-way parts of our bruised world, met incredible people from all walks of life and observed a great swathe of the Americas. Travelling alone on the 45,000km journey allowed him a rare opportunity to disconnect from hectic daily life and to embrace the solitude, challenge and peace-of-mind of the road less travelled.
From Tip to Top is a story of optimism and hope and the adventure of a lifetime, and is a ground-level portrait of the Americas as we rarely see them.
Available since: 04/18/2024.
Print length: 320 pages.

  • My Juliet--Examined Right There on the Beach: A Shy Shivering Wife Her Controlling Husband and His Medically Unqualified Dad - A Story of Appalling Humiliation - cover

    My Juliet--Examined Right There...

    Derek Vernon is just trying to relax and enjoy a pleasant day at the beach, along with his wife Juliet and his parents. And, given how smokin’ hot Juliet looks in her bikini, it promises to be a very pleasant day, indeed! 
 
Until his sweetie comes running out of the water in a panic. Something has gotten onto that fantastic body of hers—something that stings and itches badly.
 
Not to worry. Derek’s dad works in the medical field. He’ll handle everything.
 
Not that this man is a doctor or anything close. He’s merely an x-ray technician. Still, he’s the best they have at the moment. But what Derek’s dad lacks in medical qualifications, he more than makes up for in sheer gall. He actually orders the shaking young woman to lie down on the beach blanket, where he proceeds to remove her swimsuit and examine her very carefully.
 
Carefully, thoroughly, and very intimately—right there on a public beach with dozens of gawking bystanders. And Juliet is perhaps the last person on Earth to endure such humiliation. In fact, she has frustrated her husband to no end for years with her over-the-top body modesty and inhibited sexuality.
 
So, although Derek should feel sorry for the ordeal his wife is being put through, all he feels is major arousal…and, strangely, from the jealousy he feels seeing his dad being granted more viewing and feeling rights than he ever had!
 
And this jealousy is made even worse when a young lifeguard comes over and checks Juliet over just as intimately—explaining that she has a case of sea lice, which he treats by dabbing her with medicine very nearly everywhere.
 
By now, Derek is seething in envy and arousal. Thank God his shaken wife just wants to go home because this hugely horny hubby has big plans for her—plans that will not only satisfy his envy-tinged arousal but teach her a thing or two about the joys of giving her husband what he’s always wanted—and more!
