I was a home nudist, it was easy because I live alone and I didn't have to show my body to anyone.
I started tanning on my deck in my boxers. Then to lessen the tan lines I decided to sunbathe in my old bikini briefs but started worrying about being seen by the neighbors. I put up a privacy screen and only then decided I could even get rid of the briefs and tan naked. I fell in love with the feeling of being nude outdoors but felt constrained on my deck. I needed room to roam.
There aren't any nude beaches around here and I sure didn't want to get busted as an exhibitionist and have to register as a sex offender. I began to consider nudist camps. Searching, I learned about the world record skinny dip that was coming up and decided to take the plunge. I began making plans and arrangements but wasn't sure I could actually go through with it.
On the big day I packed the car and began the 2 hour trip, filled with both excitement and dread. The biggest hurdle I believe was pulling into the drive when I got there, almost drove past. I went to the office and was given a tour of the facilities. On the tour we ran into a beautiful naked blonde woman a couple of times and I again began to doubt whether I could do this. Was afraid of an all day erection, my god, they warn you about 4 hours on those pill ads.
Well, I was committed. I decided to start as near to my comfort zone as possible, so I got out my lounge chair, towel, Ipod and sun screen. Set up right by my car on the lawn near the beach and ******** down to lay in the sun like I would on my deck back home..
THE SKY DIDN'T FALL AND I WASN'T STRUCK DOWN BY LIGHTNING ! (and no erections either)
I couldn't just lie there all day so after having a couple beers as reinforcement I walked down to check out the lagoon's beach where our official skinny dip count would take place. The next stop was the conversation pool and I began to get very relaxed in the warm water, and chatted a bit with the others there. Back to the car to grab a cooler and then all the way across the grounds to where they were holding a volley ball tournament. After watching that for a while it was time for a swim and a soak in the hot tub.
Damn, it was nearly three o'clock already, had to hurry down to the lagoon to set the Guinness World Record Skinny Dip. So there we are, around 300 of us standing in the lake, waiting to be counted and for our picture to be taken. That's what I came for, it was fun, but not as much fun as I was having the rest of the time.
Okay so even fat naked people got to eat some time, it was time for lunch. There was a picnic table at the road by my car, got lunch and another beer out and sat down. While having lunch, I watched a couple play tennis on the nearby court and greeted folks going by, mostly the foot traffic as the golf carts were quicker than was conducive to conversation.
After another go 'round between the conversation pool, volley ball tournament, swimming pool and hot tub it was well past when I had intended to head home. I didn't want to leave yet, back to the clubhouse where they were holding a D.J. dance. It wasn't much different than any night club except for the attire and it was BYOB. One final dip in the conversation pool which was deserted at that hour, and it was in the car for a 2 hour drive I didn't want to make.
It was an incredible day, altogether enjoyable, quite amazing to me I felt more relaxed and at ease there than I do back home in the clothed world. I'm planning my next trip, hopefully for a weekend rather than a day, maybe a membership next year. So now I'm a confirmed social nudist.
There were just two problems to report, I'm a photographer and cameras aren't permitted. I usually take pictures everywhere. I also had one accident. Without having any pockets, I accidentally locked my keys in the trunk. Quite worried for a bit, fortunately the car doors weren't locked and I was able to drop the back seat and retrieve my keys from the trunk. It was a tight fit, I did mention I'm fat didn't I? I'll have to be more careful next time. Anyway...
A GREAT BIG THANK YOU TO THE FINE FOLKS AT THE TURTLE LAKE RESORT
