What (not) to wear? Sunny Rest Resort pictures (no nudity)

[Karen]

Good for you, glad you had a good time!

[Moesha]

I just had a thought. When my friends and I get together for social occasions, we take photos. Do these gatherings have photographers there? I would think that wouldn't be appropriate but just thought I'd ask.

About photography....

If you are at a private party, hosted at someone's place, and if they allow photography, it's ok.

For the resort itself, if you are out in the open, at the pool, volleyball court, etc... photography and even sometimes cell phones (cause they have cams in them) are not allowed. I've been told that the resort is allowed to confiscate your cell phone if they think that you are covertly (or overtly) taking pics out in the open.

I know I wouldn't want nude photos of me on someone's camera. Lord knows what problems those could cause in the hands of the wrong people/person. Even if the scenario is innocent, if you're in the nude, it can be construed as anything but.

Clothed man sparks riot at orgy

A man who refused to take his clothes off at a raunchy party has been blamed for a mini-riot at an Australian nudist resort.

Police were called amid threats of violence and ordered the Brisbane man and his wife to leave the "anything goes" sex party, reports the Courier-Mail.

It happened at the White Cockatoo resort, near Port Douglas, Queensland, which is promoting a month of hedonism to boost sagging tourism figures.

Owner Tony Fox said the "mini-riot" erupted when four naked female guests protested when confronted by the fully-clothed man.

"They felt uncomfortable with him eyeing them up and I asked him to show some respect and take his clothes off," he said.

"He then threatened to bash me, there was some argy-bargy and I ordered him off the premises and police were called."

What's an argy-bargy and LOL at the resort name.

I have a great joke but I have to pass.

Why do I have so much laundry to do when I'm a nudist?!

Went to my first summer party this past weekend. It was sponsored by most of the people camping/living in Section D of Sunny Rest. We call that area D Block. So this was D Block's D' Party of D' Year! What a riot!!! There was a theme to the party, and it was called ABC - Anything But Clothes, lol. So many costumes and funny outfits put together. Lots of pics were taken by people there (at private parties they are allowed, if the person being photographed is ok with it). I didn't take any pics, just people watched.

We had people wrapped in Saran Wrap, in "Emergency" "Do Not Cross Tape" and other yellow and black warning tapes. There were people in racy costumes of cowboys and indians. One guy is a Navy cop or something, and he came in his flak jacket, with his holster (but a fake gun), and had his wife handcuffed to him. She was dressed up as a "dime store whore" (her words). We had people with For Sale and For Rent signs around their middles, one woman wore aluminum foil and it looked terribly uncomfortable! Another guy made a set of shorts out of baggies and duct tape, lol, it was really cute!!

So what did Dave and I go as?? LOL... I'm so not a costume person.. let me just say that first. We ended up just going as is. No clothes. It did say on the invite you can just come as a Sunny Rest Nudist if you wanted to, so that's what we did. Maybe next year it will be a funny theme and we can dress up then.

It was most fun watching the interaction of everyone there, talking to everyone, and drinking the "trash can punch". Oh my!! That stuff was potent!! It was this 30 gallon, or larger, trash can that was filled with fruit punch, fresh fruits, and then tons of liquors. It tasted yummy, but knocked you on your butt really quickly. We had people singing karaoke and just being totally silly. One woman sang a Zeppelin song, and omg, she was AMAZING!!! She was totally nude, except for a leather thong, and had this gorgeous long hair, and she just wailed out this Zeppelin song. Everyone was just blown away. Some of the people were really bad at singing, but by 8pm (party started at around 2pm), no one really cared, and we all just sang along and danced, lol.

One activity I didn't do was the ice block. There is this huge block of ice that they have 2 tunnels going through (one on the left, one on the right), and normally what you do is choose your alcohol and they will pour a shot's worth of booze down the tunnel you choose and you suck it up at the bottom. The ice is on a sloping wood stand, so you have to kneel to get the shot. Normally, the women rub their boobs on the ice and the guys get their butts smacked by all the women standing around the ice block. Yeah. I guess I have a different version of the word "fun", lol. I think theirs is more exhibitionist. It was not for me, not that you have to rub your boobs on the ice, but still... I like to just blend in to the crowd, so doing that was not blending, lol.
Dave and I headed down to take care of the kids way before the night was over. We heard it was still going on strong late into the night, and the one guy we talked to yesterday (Monday) said he just drank the last of the punch that day... and the party was on Saturday, lol.

Crazy, crazy times!!!

It sounds like you're having a wonderful time and fitting in just fine - good for you! I thought it was telling a couple of posts back when you said "Why do I have so much laundry to do when I'm a nudist?! " - I think that was the first time you referred to yourself with the actual word!

In any case, I have been at parties with the ice block - it was called a "booze luge". I didn't participate, either.

[Moesha]

Here's a question. Do you wear clothes in the car on the way over to the party? Or is it just that because you have to live in the resort, you wouldn't have the possibility of being pulled over for speeding?

[jennielynn1970]

Thought I'd check in and let you guys know how all is going.

Can I just say I'm enjoying this so much more than I thought I would. I'm feeling extremely comfortable with myself in the buff, even if I don't look the way I'd like myself to look. I've been having so much fun, meeting tons of people, and just relaxing. It's actually so relaxing to be nude. I would never have imagined it!!

I'm also extremely tan, lol, and it's only July 1st. My hair stylist, who also waxes my legs for me, is just floored. She can't believe how tan I am, because I've never been into tanning like this. It's almost impossible to not be tan in this environment. I wear sunscreen (have a variety from 12 to 90 spf). I did goof up one day and forgot to put sunscreen on my face. Ouch. I'm still peeling from that goof last week.

But yeah, it's been fun and I'm just so enjoying the whole experience. Even Dave said "you're really embracing the whole nudism thing, aren't you?" That was after him coming home from work and finding me on the deck of a guy who I'm not close friends with, but we had hung out all day at the pool and talked and there was a thunderstorm so we went back to his place to get out of the rain and BBQ. He's about 6' 3" tall, tattooed all over his body, has a long gray pony tail, and can be a bit of an intimidating figure when you throw in the Vietnam Vet status and that he's on disability for trying to kill his one co-worker by putting him through a machine that breaks down cardboard boxes... :O How did I get to his place? On the back of his ATV. Naked. LOL. So, yeah, I'm getting quite comfortable. Where else can you hang out on a relative stranger's deck, naked and chat and grill on the bbq?!

We're going to a 4th of July party this weekend, so that should be fun. We're signed up to take wine and a dessert. Fireworks up at Sunny Rest are supposed to be really great, so the whole weekend should be pretty much a party. Dave's girls will be up for the fireworks, but I think he's taking them home after that because the weekend is just supposed to be really busy and wild... want to shield the kids from a lot of that.

I'm getting really close with his kids, which is great. I absolutely love them. We've been talking about moving in together, and fixing up my 3rd floor to suit the girls so they each have their own bedroom. It's in disarray right now from when my friend lived there, so it needs to be fixed up. The girls will be thrilled to have their own rooms, since right now they sleep on an air mattress in the library when they stay down here overnight.

I think that's all that's been going on on this end. I'm down to 5 cats. I took my one pee-er, Furbee, back to the shelter. My cat sitter had a melt down about so much pee to clean up and honestly, I had had it myself. So Furbee, my last foster, is back in the shelter. I still have one or two others that are peeing, so I'm going to set up a camera to see who is doing it (just got it the other day).

I'll update more when things are in full swing later this month. Things are just getting geared up, and people are finally coming in droves to the resort. We needed some dry weekends and sun, sun, sun!!!

[ramanth]

That's great news! I hope you had a good time this weekend.

[jennielynn1970]

You have to watch and listen to this song, that was written and sung by our friend, and "in house" resort musician, Mike. No nudity, so don't worry (or you can be disappointed, lol). Well... there is nudity, but they stop panning the video at Mike's waist, lol. Be happy about that one, cause otherwise I wouldn't be able to post it!

Let me know what you think about "Gonna be Naked all Summer at Sunny Rest".

Hope you are all relaxed and happy and enjoying your summer like I am!!

[lvpets2002]

Cute Song..

[jennielynn1970]

Only ONE comment on the song and video?! You guys are so not fun!!

Comments are what make this amusing...

[Pinot's Mom]

I'll comment when you come to the party!

You have to understand, I have dial up at home - where everything takes forever - so the only option is to view at work (which I just did) and I have to be VERY DISCREET about it. I didn't know what it was going to be like!
