Birthday Walk
« on: October 30, 2022, 09:45:12 AM »
We took a walk, about three miles, this spring up on a trail near the Mt. Lemmon Highway.

Haven't read this one fully but scanned it. What made me think is that there hasn't been a post from anyone else for about 2 weeks - unprecedented!
Where are you all, guys?  Are Jbee and I the last men standing?

A birthday celebration in a birthday suit! Well, at least partiality anyway. I do celebrate mine the same however it’s indoors because my birthday is in the dead of winter. As for Jbee and Nuduke being the only guys here; with things as they are I only live vicariously through you and my memories.

Then hang in there, Nudewalker!
Great to have you in the conversation.
As I said, I think, in a previous post, sorry to hear things aren't too good for you on the naturist front. 
I too get a lot out of others experience (particularly Jbee's and JMFs because they are such prolific posters) as my naturist activity in natural surroundings is a bit limited.  It was a great introduction to the naked life for me to find the now defunct Secret Naturists Society Forum (TSNS) in 2007 when I was just realising that I was a naturist and found all these guys that were experienced nude hikers and whatnot.  In those days we used regularly to share trip reports and experiences out on the naked trail.  I got a lot of personal encouragement and reinforcement from several friends in that forum most of whom used to post in this forum after the demise of TSNS.  Eventually I met some of them face to face, sometimes in naturist circumstances.
Over the years of this forum members have come and gone much more frequently and the conversations have got somehow less nude focused.  I have a nostalgia for the TSNS days, I guess, because I found out loads of stuff about living and hiking naked which today are, for me, routine.  And so it is with most of the old hands on this forum, there's less to say because we've already said it at some time in the past.  Milfmog, for instance, late of this parish and TSNS, was always finding new places to explore, often very secretly and at the extremes of day and night, and would tell us about it in a well written narrative for the most part.  Only Jbee and JMF do this nowadays.  Myself and Bob, Ricc and a few others have fairly repetitive naturist time and experience and do the same stuff frequently e.g. Bob walking his land and Ricc gardening and me with garden and very occasional woodland excursions.  We've not really got anything new to report very often.
A lot of recent friends such as Safebare and Reuben have been posting very infrequently.  So forum life is quieter these days.
I forget, were you a TSNS member, Nudewalker?  There was a Nightwalker.

The traditional winter time slow.
I find new places to roam and have a long bucket list to go. Plenty to talk about, even more to do.

There is a weekly sweat with friends, for my more staid steady life. There is just so much to say about that. There are all of the chores around the house and the remodeling that is a different experience without clothing. There is the revolution to normalize nudity, the politics, ways to spread naturism, help people out of their silly hangups. I may have a spiel looking for opinions next week about a new nudist TV thing. I'll be making a thread about making a home more naturist friendly in the changing weather.   The new sweat and its associated community is beginning to happen.

Many winters past tell us that things will pick up eventually, if we just keep conversing. Surely there will be some vacations to warmer weather and a naturist experience can e inserted into such? Anybody got any plans for vacations?

Hi - I'll do a proper intro soon on the Introductions thread, but I registered a couple of days ago and was told to await an email to confirm. No email came, but I've been able to log on. I wonder if this has happened to others registering, and they've given up? Could be related to the lack of posters.....

Hummm?
Any chance of that Karla?

We got a few posters from another site, I think it Naturist Corner, but they haven't been adding much dialog, since the initial spurt.

I thought you just signed up and signed in!  Don't think Stuart and Karla vet applicants.  Do you?

I wasn't. It went just as you said Nuduke.
