Skinny-dipping

You all probably don’t want to hear this but too bad.

If you have never skinny-dipped you don’t know what you are missing.

Tonight marks the first skinny-dip of the season for me. The water temperature is still a touch chilly at 78F degrees, but the warm evening helped.

Silken water against bare skin.

Tiki torches casting a warm glow.

Three bats (Hurrah!) circling overhead, catching bugs.

Frogs singing in the background.

The occasional lost firefly. (Their season is about over.)

Laps in the pool: the ultimate sleeping aid.

Heaven! Sheer. Naked. Heaven.

I haven’t skinny dipped since I was little, swimming in the lake behind our house in Florida. I’ve lived in too many cities to skinny dip as an adult!

Well, I don’t have a pool but, if I did and my neighbors weren’t 6 feet away, I’d be there, all natural for sure!  Enjoy!

Steve, we are surrounded by dense trees. We only skinny-dip at night!

Helene, c’mon up then!

you make it sound…so peaceful…aaahhhh.

Debra, it is. Ahhhh .... is so right!

Sounds extremely daring - couldn’t be so daring in my garden as there is a street light which ensures we are never in the dark - I wouldn’t want to frighten the neighbours!

Joyce, daring? Maybe. But we don’t have any one that can see and once you in the water you really can’t see a thing.

We skinny dip at my place day or night….. while we try to be considerate of the neighbors, if they are hiding behind windows they could certainly catch a glimpse.  My almost not a teenaged son has been known to say “MOM!  We have neighbors now”.... unlike our old house where we could go around buck naked all the time and no one would be the wiser.
