Fading fast
The extremely wet and rainy weather we’ve been having here in Dallas since the end of May has really put a damper on the sunning and frolicking of the area’s nudist population, ourselves included. Rather than relaxing in the usually blazing June and July sunshine of North Texas every weekend, as well as most days and early evenings during the week, we’ve been relative shut-ins, with a scarce few fine weekend days so far all season.
That’s taking a toll on our usually well-developed all-over tans — as well as our usual extraordinary abundance of life-saving Vitamin D, produced automatically by our bodkins when flesh is exposed to the Sun’s rays. Although thanks to a well-balanced diet and a daily multivitamin, most US residents don’t have to worry about getting their RDA of Vitamin D, we still bemoan the drought of sun we’ve had here lately which provides us the very most pleasant and natural way to obtain all the Vitamin D we can use.
The forecast still calls for gloom and more rain through the weekend, so there’s literally no end in sight to this weather pattern which has stalled a giant low-pressure system over Texas for most of the past month. With no seasonal steering winds present to blow this low out of here, we’re wondering when we’ll ever see the sun again — and be able to get back to our health regimen of Vitamin D production through nude sunbathing.
