IC/OOC Post - Pike's Ranch Excursion
Who: Open to all
When: 226405.29 (Monday)
Where: Pike's Ranch in the Mojave
What: Horseback riding, hiking, swimming, eating, etc..

All travelers & Enterprise personnel were invited to spend Monday out at Pike's Ranch in the Mojave. Shuttles were provided from San Francisco to the ranch. There's about 10-15 horses at the ranch and Pike would have been leading trail rides most of the day as well as providing info about hiking in the vicinity. (His three favorite horses are named Whiskey, Tango & Foxtrot, but there are multiple horses fit for every level of rider from beginner to advanced) There will be grilled veggies & meats for lunch, courtesy of Captain Kirk and swimming is available at the pool. Leia will be playing hostess because it's what she does.

In the evening, there would be a bonfire where Pike might bust out his guitar and sing. Also, s'mores & stargazing.

Jim & OTA (multiples welcome)

Jim parked himself at the grill most of the afternoon, a burger flipper in one hand and a stained apron on. He hummed tunelessly to himself as he grilled, keeping the veggies and the meat separate for those people who appreciate that sort of thing. A cold beer is never far out of reach for him either, and he appreciates anyone who refreshes it for him.

With the food sizzling beside him, Jim leaned against the deck railing and sipped the beer, glancing around with a grin at those wandering by. "I hope everyone's hungry," he said, nodding to grills, which were letting off the delicious scents of burning food (but the right kind of burning, not the wrong kind).

	At some point, Pike is going to steal Jim away from the grill for that ride... Perhaps with a little showboating for everyone assembled. ;) (Reply to this) (Parent)

Jim & Mary

Mary might replenish his beer for him. She'll also smile at him, but try not to be too touchy feely unless he initiates it. She doesn't think they're exactly a secret, but she gets the impression that he's not ready to tell the world yet. Her hand rests on his arm at one point while they're speaking but that's the extent of it.

When Pike tries to steal him away for a ride, Mary is there to aid in the kidnapping and go along with them. Fortunately everything she imagined about Jim riding a horse is true. He looks incredibly attractive, even if he has some hiccups at first.

That night, she sits next to him at the campfire but again keeps her hands to herself unless he invites her to touch him. Overall, it's an enjoyable day.
