This was way back-like in the early 1970s and I was about 12 or so--but my dad had this friend who had a farm and I wound up spending lots of time on the farm for a part of a summer--the man was older so his kids were grown but he had lots of grandkids, neices, nephews and the like and I got accepted as one of the family--I helped out with "the chores" and such--doing things like feeding animals--helping with milking cows, mucking out the stalls-stuff like that--
The hardest thing we did was to when it came time to harvest the wheat and hay--it was hot and dirty work--but it actually kind of made you feel good to do the work--
Well--we did get to take breaks at times and on one corner of the farm--a creek made a nice bend forming the perfect swimming hole--we would go to the hole--eat some lunch and we would go skinny dipping--the place had the tree with a hanging rope that dropped right over the middle of the hole--it was pretty deep there--like ten feet deep--most of the creek during the summer barely had enough water to cover your feet in most places but this spot was great and perfect for swimming...
It was an accepted and open thing---almost expected that you'd go skinny dipping--it felt good and that is where I probably developed my love of nudism.
I am curious--did you have a place sorta like that when you were a kid?
The thread I did about the kid pics made me think about this---I wonder if the way people freak out about things like this if they allow kids to have a skinny dip hole and those experiences these days?
It just seems to me we are so uptight and freaked out about so much these days---I kind of feel sad for the kids if they don't have a time when they can do thngs like freely go skinny dipping--all in innocent fun---it just seems that the way kids lives are so structured now--they can't just be kids and then again--it seems they would rather sit in the rec room on a nice summer's day and play Nintendo or Play Station all day long instead of going outside and being active...
