We are back from our camping at Helios Naturist Campgrounds near Edmonton.

There is a heavy mist outside due to very high humidity. Wednesday was a day of rain from the time we woke until nightfall. We got 93 mm of rain which meant that we spent a lot of time vacuuming up water in the basement. The day also saw us preparing twelve large cabbages for sauerkraut. Needless to say we went to bed exhausted

A different photo to the left that almost hides my face yet doesn’t hide the fact that I was nude. I hesitated for quite a while before accepting the photo for use here. There are too many headless, naked man images flooding the Internet. I was excited about the return of the sun and taking care of the things in our yard that have been neglected.

I even cut the lawn though it wasn’t too long just in case of another rainstorm deciding to make an appearance. A low-level of standing water in the northeast corner of our garden made mowing more difficult than normal but I would have to wait for several more days with total sunshine before it had any chance of drying up. Of course, the lawn was mowed while I was skyclad.

Photos are an integral part of my journal. This is the fourth year in a row that I have kept a Skyclad Journal. It was only after, a few hours later, that the idea for bringing the photo here made its appearance into my consciousness. Of course, I asked myself “why?” and that becomes the raison d’etre of this blog post.

Photos are a reminder that I am my own authority. Though I don’t post genital images, it is valid if I should choose to do so in order to remind myself about who is really in charge here on my blog site. Being in charge doesn’t mean full-frontal images. It simply means that I have a choice. It’s not so easy to differentiate and it is important to make note of that fact consciously.

With that said, it’s time to return to the sunshine.
