RE:Private yard

Thanks. Got it.

Wifey teases hubby of us about having a brown body. But it's effort. It'd be nice to have the shorts to promote it.

How do we post images here? I can do it in the gallery and profile, but can't figure out how in the groups (other than group gallery).

"Do you have a link to the "tan through shorts"? I've been looking for something like that, but so far nothing I've found has been discreet enough."
I got a pair of Skinzwear A14 shorts in a patterned mesh that I'm quite happy with. I haven't worn them long enough to make any assessment on tan-through abilities. They can be seen through on close inspection but not from a short distance.

Our private yard was great for the weekend. We still had some nice weather and opportunity for some more sun before winter kicks in here. Hours out there both Saturday & Sunday, even did some more gardening.

Living here in Southern Cal., there aren't many, if any, homes without fences/walls surrounding their property. Even those larger acreage properties that have railed fencing in front and on the sides, seem to have an area behind their home that is fenced off for privacy.

Yeah, we wonder quite a bit if any of our neighbors are using their backyard just as we do. We think about all the potential nudists friends we could have that live across the street, around the corner or in the neighborhood. At our previous home, we had a couple move in next door. After a few years, they got divorced and he moved out. The woman remained with her two older kids, one in HS and one in college. She had peeked over the wall one day to asks us something and saw us enjoying our backyard nude. After that incident, we frequently saw her naked in her backyard, from our second story office window, sunning, yard work, using her pool. She seemed fine knowing we'd most likely see or seen her.

When we told her we were moving away, she said she was sad that her nudist neighbors were moving and wished we'd been able to spend more time together enjoying each others backyards and company. It's these times that are somewhat frustrating to think, "we could have been good friends with others that are also nudists."

Thats so cool that she peeked over and then enjoyed living a nude life in her backyard! The neighbors I have here dont have privacy fences. One day I want to put up a privacy fence and enjoy my backyard more and not worry about neighbor kids seeing me. They are about an acre away, but they are young.

Ive never thought about people with privacy fences being nudists. But I will definitely have that thought in my mind from now on when I see one! I know my neighbor across the street likes to go nude in her house.

I will admit that her head over the wall startled us at first but there was nowhere to take cover so we just stood there and talked with her for a couple minutes. She did apologize, at first, but my wife really liked her and told said, "well, the cats outta the bag now, did you need something?" She was asking about our pool service guy and if we'd recommend him, which we did. She apologized again, told us she liked to enjoy her pool and backyard the same way and thanked us for the recommendation. Not sure why the nudist neighbor connection didn't go any further.

We did spend some time together during parties at our house but never actually had any time where we spent time naked together, just the three of us or her and my wife. We got the feeling that she felt she was intruding. We were empty nesters at this time and a little older. She and my wife would spend time out front talking quite a bit, while they both were doing some yardwork. My wife did talk to her about how we lived and how long we've lived that way. This neighbor was so amazed that we'd been nudists most of our lives. She figured we'd just did some skinny dipping and sunbathing. She had no idea that we hardly ever wore clothes inside or out in the backyard.

Sometimes I feel that we're our own worst enemies in situations with nudism. We either don't talk about with others or we're hesitant about discussing it and you fumble around to explain what it really means and means to you. The upside is that afterwards, she seemed to feel more comfortable enjoying her pool and backyard, knowing we lived as we did.
