Chistmas Season at the Resort

For Christmas this year several of our neighbors and us have done a larger display of lights and animated blow up figures in the lawn area out side our units. We tried to make it a little more interesting this year. Last year there wasn’t much done. In the future we plan on doing more planning earlier in the year and have a more corrordinated display;.

The annual hay ride to view the lights and decorations of the residences was scheduled for last Saturday night, but it rained. Not much fun in the rain, so it was canceled. All the would be hay riders went to the party that would have been at the end of the ride anyway.

I mention this because we do normal things like other people in the textile world. We dress when it is cold and stay out of the rain when it is raining. Just like ‘normal people’.

There is always something going on the weekends for the members that do not live here at the resort. During the week it is rather quiet., Especially during the off season. Just the way we like it.

Ginny and I have never been able to decide if we like it here better in the summer or winter. Summer has lot of stuff going on with the full membership coming and going. Winter it is rather quiet and we spend more time with our friends and neighbors. Just like other people.

If you get hot while playing cards, you can take your top off or anything else you feel like. That is if you had anything on to begin with. Not like we are nude that much during the cold season. We get cold like everyone else. As they say, ‘ We are nudists, not stupid’.

In the cold months, we are at the indoor hot tub and swimming pool more than anywhere else. There you have to be naked to get in the water.

Ginny and I do not go to the bar very often, but if we did clothing is optional. The dances are very interesting. A little bit of everything. Naked to sweats, Suits to PJs. Halloween is especially looked forward too. Our New Year eve celebration is a big deal, also, and is sold out during a meeting held early in December. The number of attendees has to be limited for fire regulations.

The restaurant is only open on weekends during the off season. It is clothing optional. Just the staff has to stay clothed because of health code regulations. Food is good and reasonably priced considering we are a resort. A full bar for those who want an adult beaverage during or with their meal. The wine menu is limited, but does have a reasonable selection. Ginny and I am more of the “two buck chuck type”, so that really doesn’t matter to us.

Years ago, when we first moved here, the old restaurant was managed by members of the club. It had more of a neighborhood pub feel then because it was opened year round. Everyone would meet there after work to chat; have coffee or a beer; watch ‘Wheel of Fortune’; have a cheap greasy meal; and go home smiling. Things change and we adapt. Life goes on.

Until next time, may your god keep you safe.........
