Happy Holidays
« on: December 24, 2024, 09:57:30 PM »
Incidentally, HAPPY HOLIDAYS Y'all!!!


Out naked in the sun here (HIGH 70F's near 80F here). I'm trimming a new door stop for the sweat and sanding the new fireplace mantle and getting ready for the kids to stop by in a few days for some tyke gifts and digging into some old heirloom stuff in the garage.

This Eve, going to older granddaughter's house in PJ's for Christmas dinner and gift thing. One GD is too young for Santa (but in training) and one is too old for Santa, unless he drops off a car.

The weather has been historical record nice and warm all month. The last few years, after a warm winter, when spring is supposed to start, the colder winter weather starts up finally. The good news is if that happens again...the trend for years has been that when we get bad weather, you northerners get the good kinds.

Thanks, Jbee - mild, dull and damp here in the English Lake District - normal for time of year but definitely not nude-worthy!

A little philosophical metaphorical holiday contemplation around the Yule/New Years traditions:

Oh yea, that's a local tomcat that has trained me to feed, water and massage it on command. We call him Tom.

That's a splendid picture of you two, Jbee!  You look well (possibly since you are smiling!!)

Happy Holidays to my FRN friends, albeit a bit late. Winter finally arrived here in SE Texas overnight, dropping the temp a full 40 degrees (F) to just below freezing. Blankets on the horses and a coat on me!

I have been busy over the last several weeks and quite stressed over my brother's continued emotional, physical and mental decline. He has been living in an RV in my pasture for the past 3 years suffering from Werneke-Kosakof Syndrome (aka 'wet brain'). His condition has worsened this year with a Pancreatic Cancer diagnosis. Things will certainly continue to decline for whatever remaining time he has in this rhelm.

I did invite a small gathering over for NYE that provided a welcome distraction. Traditional foods, beverages, fire and fireworks, but mostly warm conversations and comraderie. There was a chill in the air, that kept nude as an option, certainly not the only one. I have received a query or two about another sweat dome event, but not feeling the energy at this time.

Someone on twitter queried about a southern US location to experience their first World Naked Bike Ride. I opined that New Orleans would be a good bet with a nearby Naturist Park (Indian Hills). This may turn into a gathering if anyone here is interested. I attended the WNBR - NOLA last year and had a fabulous time. No way for my to predict my availability in June of this year, but will leave the date marked on the calendar.
