The Nude Life

Tell anyone else that you plan to move to a nudist resort to live clothesfree full-time, and they’d most likely react with disbelief and shock, and you’d have a lot more explaining to do before you’d be able to continue to count them among your friends. Tell the same thing to one of your nudist friends, and they not only understand, they respond with good-natured envy at the wonderful days awaiting you.

Nudists understand, on a very comfortable and familiar level, what’s important and valuable to other nudists, and so sharing dreams, plans and experiences of the nude life with our nudist friends is very easy to do. The same things that they have found wonderful and life-changing about nudism are the things that we all discuss whenever we’re together. Last night’s gathering of many of our nudist friends at a small party hosted by one couple was a perfect example. Someone inquired about the progress we’re making on our retirement plans, which include moving to Florida and living at least the better part of the year at Cypress Cove. Sharing details like that with any non-nudist friends or co-workers is out of the question, of course, so we have to keep things vague when asked the same things by others. But we can speak freely with our nudist friends, since they share a common love for the freedom and friendships that nudism has brought to our lives.

This is probably the same kind of “kindred spirit” camaraderie that all sorts of other self-similar groups offer to their members, whether it’s Alcoholics Anonymous, scrapbookers or model railroad enthusiasts. It is very reassuring to know that we are not “alone,” and that many, many other nice, sensible, friendly, level-headed people share our love of this simple way of life.

With Dallas-area temperatures in the low 80s since the start of the month, there has been little reason to be dressed around the house this month until today. Cooler weather arrived overnight last night, but since last week, over the weekend and until now we have been able to enjoy the indulgence of nudity all day every day during the first days in November while at home.

We spent a splendid nude weekend outdoors by the pool enjoying the warm sun, and didn’t have a need to get dressed except for a few chores since mid-week last week. It certainly makes laundry day on Saturday a lot easier when you are not wearing any clothes that need washing, and your laundry basket has few other clothes in it as well!

My wife and I are both working from home this month, so there’s little need to dress at all except for errands out of the house. Being comfortably nude during the day eases the passage of the workday, and before too long it is quitting time and we are able to kick back for some together time in the splendid weather.

Our ritual for the past few days has been to retire to the back patio for some card games and adult beverages immediately after “work” ends at 5:00 PM, enjoying the sunshine and calm winds in the most comfortable way possible. Being able to leave “work,” and be outside enjoying nude relaxation in the sunshine one minute later, is a luxury we are most grateful for.

Winter will be here soon enough, and with it the obligation to wear clothes for warmth while indoors as well as outside. And so we relish the late fall days when our nudity during the day can be uninterrupted, making workdays more comfortable and relaxed — even if only for awhile.

How’s your weather? Have you been able to enjoy any nude time as fall comes to the Northern hemisphere? Share your thoughts and experiences in The Nude Life Forum.

It seems like 99% of the “nudist” blogs on the Internet are really trolling pages for swingers, single males and perverts who somehow think that using the word ‘nudist’ will attract the kind of people they want to connect with.

Well, we’re nudists, and none of that type of stuff is what nudism is about. So we thought there ought to be at least ONE blog on the Internet written by and about real nudists, who just enjoy the nudist lifestyle and all the wonderful benefits it offers.

About us: we have been active nudists for about 14 years. We are active in a large local nudist travel club called the Sunbirds, in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas region. We’re members of AANR, the nation’s largest and oldest nudist association.

We have been on 10 of the nude cruises sponsored by Bare Necessities Tour and Travel, as well as three “Buff Diving” nude SCUBA diving trips with the Buff Divers group (now defunct). All of that is in addition to more than 50 other vacations, trips and shorter getaways to local, national and international nudist destinations in the mainland US, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Hawaii.

At home, we’re nude nearly all the time during the warm summer months here in Dallas, and spend nearly every weekend nude outside by our pool or partying with our friends in the Sunbirds. We really enjoy the great fun and the wonderful friends we meet as nudists, and we really can’t imagine going back to a clothing-compulsive life.

Soon, we will be retiring and moving to a nudist resort in Florida to live for part of the year, as well as buying a big 5th Wheel RV and touring the country during the summer, seeing as much of the US (and as many of the country’s nudist resorts and nude beaches!) as possible.

So that’s a little about us. More to come soon, since summer is a busy time for nudists in Dallas and we have a lot to report on!

Stay real,

Full Time Nudists
