BillFeb 14, 2022Nudeyooper, thank you for the clarification! It's getting the little things wrong that make us all a little smarter once they are corrected. One of my favorite things to do is reading nude as I'm tanning, right now through the glass panes of our resorts hot tub building with the temperature still too low to brave outdoors bare. The latest book is by Doris Kearns Goodwin lent me by MomTeam of Rivals, written in 2005. Daniel Webster had a small part in it, but as Secretary of State for count 'em three Presidents, his involvement in American history is deep. This excellent book (I'm only 265 pages in - 489 to go[!]) is all the more enjoyable for me at this pivotal political moment, with its main thrust so far dealing with the four men who were up for the Republican nomination for president in 1860, and purportedly eventually deals with Lincoln's decision to name those three rivals to his cabinet. The Daniel Day Lewis movie "Lincoln" was written using this book as the main background source, a movie which I've heard focuses on Lincoln's last four months as president. I REAAAALY want to watch the movie before I'm done reading, oh the temptation! My ass cheeks are going to be plenty cooked if I don't remember to stop reading once in a while and turn over onto my back some, hee hee! Merriam-Webster is my online go-to dictionary. That is Noah Webster, the spelling man, thanks! He died in 1843 and the Merriams acquired the rights to his dictionary, thus the name of the current reference book. I also hit up myAmerican Heritage Dictionarywhen the computer isn't on, though the dust collecting on it is getting quite thick of late. Keep up the good work, wordsmiths!ReactReply - PA

Oops, again thank you for the correction. I was stating that from memory and obviously botched it. Oh well, I will now remember it correctly in the future.

Tom DMay 9, 2022[quote]Anything in my backyard, nude swimming, nude grilling, nude tanning, working in my garage nude, nude pool parties. But will have to say retiring to a nude resort so I can be nude 24/7 the rest of my life.[/quote] I noticed on your profile that you are getting to an age where you are probably thinking about retirement. Are you looking into moving to nude resort?ReactReply - TD
Tom DMay 9, 2022Not my favorite thing, but I certainly find working out more enjoyable now that I do it nude in my basement.

HarryMay 9, 2022I love to be outside naked. But the only place to be is at the CO park in the area. But I do drive home in the nude in the evenings and when on the back roades I may stop and get out of the car naked.

As an add on to an earlier post, I enjoy my nude morning routine. That includes getting the coffee & tea started, looking outside at the weather, checking the news and catching up on TN. It makes for the start of a great day.

Just being outdoors naked in some natural setting is my favourite thing. Walking, swimming, resting, observing nature... It's all so peaceful.
ReactReply - MEMemberMar 28, 2023
Definitely swimming or volleyball. Or both at the same time.
Generally anything to play outside naked is first on the list.
