"The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated"

Thanks to all of you who posted public comments, and to those who took the time to contact me personally. In a nutshell, I feel that this blog has run its course, for a variety of reasons both personal and practical. It was never my intention to disappear from the naturist world, but to make contributions in different ways.

But due to the many words of encouragement, which have been quite overwhelming and 100% positive, I have decided to remain online by making a fresh start. On The Political Naturist, I will continue to voice my opinion on matters relating to social nudism and naturism.

People seem to have mixed opinions about photos. I think that images of nudism and naturism are important in helping to show people how natural and fun the lifestyle will be, so I have created two new blogs. Adam and Eve will be a collection of photos of nudist couples, and Nudist Photo of the Day is self-explanatory.

The Naturism Blog is conceived as a central source for all nudist and naturist blogs, and will certainly evolve over time.

So again, many thanks to all for the tremendous support, any blogging effort is pointless without an enthusiastic audience.

T-t-that's All Folks!

For personal reasons which are of no interest to anybody but me, I am calling it quits on this blog after nearly four years. I hope that what I've written here has been useful to some people. The blog will remain online indefinitely but will no longer be updated. Thanks to all who stopped by and spent a little time here.

What Not to Wear

"What Not to Wear" is a 10 minute audio broadcast about a real woman named Tracy who decided to accompany her husband on a nude vacation. Listen here. Thanks to Paul Rapoport of FCN, who assures me this is indeed a true story.

Topless Coffee Shop in Maine Destroyed by Fire

Just after Donald Crabtree appeared in front of the Vassalboro Planning Board asking for a dancing permit for his topless coffee shop, his establishment was destroyed by fire. The fire marshal's office is investigating, and I will be surprised if this was an accident. More home grown terrorism?

UPDATE: It was arson.
