Summerson

Thanks to the 25 to 30 people who attended the meet and greet on Friday.  I felt more like a guest than a host as some of you probably noted.  Still, I think things worked out really well.  Food was sufficient and there were naked men in the pool in the spa and on the patio.  The well dressed formed a conversation circle in the living room leaving plenty of room for those passing by the food and drinks.  
I appreciate all of you who came out and left me with little in the way of left overs.  I would definitely consider doing it again next year should Oliver decide to continue this into the 26th year and David SF decides to remain in retirement from hosting.  
If any of you should return to PS give me a heads up and we will have a meal or a swim or a slap and tickle.  

Greetings all.  Now that I have returned home and reflected on some of my personal highlights of the weekend during the flight home, I thought I would share some here:
1). There are many, many wonderful attendees, some I have now known over 10 years, some that started attending after we missed 2020 due to COVID lockdown, and a few newcomers.  The diversity of the attendees I think is what I really enjoy the most be it professional backgrounds, ages raging from 20s to 90s, geographic, and racial.
2)   Some of the best conversations (for me anyway) occur around the breakfast table each morning at INNdulge - hearing what (or who) the guys did the prior evening, recommendations for dinner while in town, what’s coming to Broadway, and updates on past attendees that were not able to attend in 2026.
3)  Dinner at Trio is always nice.   The relationship @Oliver has built over the years with the current owner makes this a great evening.   And everyone that shared thoughts about this year’s meal were outstanding!  I will place a little plug in for Trio for anyone looking for a place to dine.
For those of you interested in the stats of the weekend:  25 individuals attended dinner at Trio Saturday and 33 attended the pool event on Sunday.
 
 

Much appreciation to the multiple hosts who volunteered their houses and time to make the events possible! 
And much appreciation to the gorgeous men (both escorts and clients) who made time to show up and get naked in the pool 🥳 

I had so much fun! Such a friendly group and it was great putting faces with the handles. Thanks to all the organizers for pulling this off so well. 

Great party as always. So fun to see familiar faces and chit-chat with guys I've been too shy to have talked to in past events. I look forward to next year (and I'll bring back the wrestling singlet, ha ha).

I finally hired NateSF and can now echo all the glowing recommendations above. 
This man is the epitome of boyfriend experience, but also some more kinky play if that's what you want (which I did!)

Whenever I'm asked, I'm always happy to share that Nate is one of my top companions of all time. He's intelligent, charming, sexy, and fun. He always makes me feel like he genuinely wants to be there and I find spending time with him to be the perfect blend of relaxation and excitement. We all have varying tastes and I'm grateful that Nate matches mine so well, because gentlemen with all of his strengths are hard to find, IMHO.

We have one of these happening this evening.  Happy Hour in midtown NYC.  
Any providers interested, send me a DM   😇

It's the first time since I moved to Los Angeles ten years ago that I won't be able to join all of you. Sigh. Unavoidable work conflict that for once I just can't do remotely. I'm already feeling the pangs of envy as the dates approach. Hope you all find ways to have a little extra fun on my behalf! 

More like, what happens in Palm Springs stays in Palm Springs until the next year when people laugh about it and recall the good times.

This forum could be a real asset to providers.  Being newer to RM, I only have 500 characters to communicate who I am and what I offer.  This offers a chance to communicate more thoughtfully and give guys on the other side of this industry a more complete view of who I am. 
But this can be a treacherous place for providers!  Many of us have scaled back participation for that reason. 
There's some really dominant toxic voices.  There's a loud peanut gallery that seems to make a hobby of comments ranging from critical to derogatory about providers they've never met or hired.  ("Needs to hit the gym," "Terrible tattoos," "Too girlie!" "Looks older than he lists,"  "PNP means he's a junkie!" "Smoker!")  There's a strong risk of slander, against which it's all but impossible to defend yourself.  (I've watched it happen to providers I know well and trust!)  And there's some known scammers - about whom we all warn each other - regularly contributing as though they're legitimate clients.  
If there were more to be gained here for us to participate, it would probably draw more of us back.  A sub-forum to promote ourselves?  Would anyone actually take advantage?  Maybe not. 
Worth noting: Every client I've met who uses this site - contributor or lurker - has been a top notch guy, just doing their research a bit more thoroughly.  So the issue really does just seem to be the loudest most toxic voices.  

Please mark your calendars for the Weekend – April 11 and 12, 2026.  Specifics will not be posted here, in order to preserve confidentiality.  Therefore, if you are serious about attending this year’s events, please send an e-mail to me (if you know my address) or a “private message” with your return e-mail address so that I may send you the pertinent information as it unfolds.  Your confidential information will be respected, as I expect mine to be.
 The first order of business will be Saturday dinner reservations at a local contemporary restaurant, followed by RSVP’s for the Sunday pool gathering at my temporary residence, hosted by sam.fitzpatrick and nate_sf.  You will be asked to prepay the dinner fee prior to the event via either PayPal or Venmo (instructions will be sent later).
 If you will be bringing a “guest”, please tell me who. That information will also be kept confidential, unless you say otherwise. Attendance by escorts (by themselves or as someone's guest) is greatly encouraged.

If you will be coming from out-of-town and need accommodations, you should arrange for those ASAP, if you have not already. There have been several suggestions put forth in previous threads concerning possible accommodations.

Again, the dinner will be early Saturday evening, April 11, and the pool gathering will be in the afternoon of Sunday, April 12.

If you have any questions, please ask in your e-mail or message.  I look forward to renewing acquaintances and meeting new ones!  Come and enjoy!😄

I’m not offended, as I’m sure others would think the same thing. But why do you consider it sad? 

I’ll add that I still escort because I enjoy it. It’s a choice. 

As an older provider in my 50s, the majority of my new clients are very close to my age. I think that’s what they’re looking for, someone more like a peer or buddy. It’s a different dynamic than when I was younger and wet around the ears. 

Picture it…..
Philadelphia.
1995.
A very young (and unbeknownst to him, strikingly beautiful) NYCman is leaving Woody’s after a rare unsuccessful night of cruising. I stumbled upon a tall, dark, ripped, handsome, rugged man in torn jeans. He smelled of roofing tar and desperation. I was right on both accounts. I took him back to my apartment and we spent a wonderful evening together.
Although we hadn’t discussed it ahead of time, in the afterglow, it became obvious he expected to be paid. I had absolutely no money. I mean seriously, I had to save up for “Dollar Margarita Night”. And even then, I could only afford one margarita. So I gave him a pair of my jeans. When he realized I only had 2 pair of jeans to my name, and I was willing to give him one of them, he started crying.
At first, he refused to take them. When I pointed out, there wasn’t much left of his old jeans to even put on, he begrudgingly accepted them. I’ll never forget how happy he was when he put my jeans on. He also showed me the knife he had planned to use to rob me and told me to be more careful in the future. 
Several times after that, I saw him on the street outside Woody’s after closing and he would come to crash at my place. The smell of roofing tar still makes me hard.
God, I’ve had a fun life!

Oliver, the host of the April Pool Party has arrived to great pomp and circumstance here in Palm Springs.  I expect planning for the festivities to start this week during a lunch we are having.  So those who are still undecided, it has always been a good time with like minded men many of them in appropriate pool attire or less at some time during the weekend.  

1995 - Tom Stoppard’s Arcadia in NYC has always stuck with me. Trevor Nunn directed Billy Crudup, Blair Brown, Victor Garber, Robert Sean Leonard, and Paul Giamatti. Left mesmerized.

“Davey Wavey’s” instagram account features his new hospitality venture and is quite suggestive. 
 
Perhaps just marketing?  

So here's what I know about Frog Meadow Farm. A friend of mine stayed there with his partner earlier this month (December 2025) and they found the entire bed and breakfast experience delightful. I'm not sure if they booked massage services or not, but I will ask them. The original owners who developed the property and business retired this year and the internet personality/"professional gay" formerly known as "Davey Wavey" (aka David Jacques) purchased Frog Meadow from them. He's apparently hired an experienced team of innkeepers to actually run the business and, as I said, my friends enjoyed themselves immensely. My understanding is that much of the property is clothing optional, but since their stay was in December, that wasn't something they could really explore on this trip.
