I'm Here
I made it up to Olive Dell. I had some trouble at the gate until I mentioned Melissa’s name. She put my name on a list apparently. The place looks a bit like Shangri La if the folks at Shangri La bothered with a coat of paint once in a while. Folks are friendly. As far as “celebrities of the nudist world,” I’ve met Tony Young and Melissa DejaNude. Katie L. Hall is scheduled...

American Nudist
Tony Young was nice enough to send me a DVD of his film American Nudist. I haven’t had a chance to see it yet, and I probably won’t until after the weekend. I’ll let you all know what I think.

That’s cool.
For those of you who follow my Tumblr (and actually read my posts) and didn’t already know/hadn’t got the hint, I’m a naturist and have been for over 2 years now.
If you want to know more about naturism and my interest in it specifically I will happily answer any questions, or you…

New Year's Eve
I’ll be making the trek out to Olive Dell Ranch in Colton for the Bare Times Launch Party. Naturist blogger Melissa DejaNude and Act Naturally star Katie L. Hall will be making an appearance. I’ve been warned that the cabins are all reserved, so if you go, you’ll have to find a room in a near by motel.
For those staying closer to home, or closer to my home anyway, Mira Vista is...

I found this site via a post on the Hot Topic for Today blog. It’s a woman named Ziba Nawak who posed nude in support for Aliaa al-Mahdy. I post anything about Aliaa al-Mahdy.

Act Naturally Update
I got an e-mail from the lovely and talented Katie L. Hall. It went out to everyone that had ordered Act Naturally. They’ve encountered a few snags and the videos will be out in January. She apologized for not getting them out by Christmas.
I didn’t order the video as a Christmas gift, but I like that she and the people involved in the production want to keep us up on what’s...

What do you mean?
suburbanudist:
Seeing a naked woman will do that child psychological harm? That’s bullshit. The first thing that happened to him was being shoved naked head first out of a vagina. If he can handle that with no ill effects then looking at one isn’t going to phase him as long as you don’t make a big deal about it.
Reblog this if you're currently blogging either...

Thinking warm thoughts: Mechanics pose nude in... →
From the article:
For the second year, bike mechanics are posing nude for a calendar to be sold in bike shops and co-ops for $15 each. Profits will go to projects like the Little Red Bike Shop, an offshoot of Right to Move, a 14-year-old co-op at Concordia.
Only Thing I Remember
In all my dreams lately I’m naked. I seem to be the only one, and it isn’t a big enough deal to bother anyone else in the dream.

I got this from the “Naturist Archives of the 1960’s” blog. There isn’t a credit for when this got published except to say that it was released by the British Sun Bathing Association and the Federation of British Sun Clubs. Here are two interesting ones:

I guess I can understand under certain circumstances it may not be appropriate but we were born this way and I don’t think your body is something you should have to hide away and be ashamed off.It could just be me, but I think the human body is beautiful and not something to be ashamed of. I feel sad for all those people who don’t love their bodies. I personally, blame the media...

Honestly, I don’t see how dancing around in your underwear is that edgy. I’ve been to far too many gay clubs to even bat an eye at it. I think people just want an excuse to dance around in their underwear and not feel bad about it. For crying out loud, if you want to dance around in your…

The Naked Truth →
From the article:
But there are some adults - many adults, actually - who refuse to conform to the idea that our bodies are to be clothed at all times. These people spend a great deal of time totally naked and totally at ease with it. They’re nudists. And they don’t much care what you think of them.

It's the Hundreth Post!
Thanks for those of you that have been reading me, “liking” me and reposting me. I hope that I haven’t fallen into the trap of “this is a nudism blog, and here are some pictures of naked women.”
Some of the pictures and articles I post are of protests rather than strictly about nudism, not that any of you are demanding purity from me. One thing that I have stayed...

My First Outing With a Naturists Society →
An English blogger named Arthur Chapel was encouraged to go to a nude swim by the couple that writes the blog Naked Vegan Cooking. His experience and a poem are available at the above link. Sentence I have no trouble agreeing with:
Getting ready for a swim is quite easy without any swimwear to get into.
