Have you ever, either unintentionally or by choice, gone to a nude beach? If so, tell us about it
(while keeping it PG-13ish) Yes. When I was in highschool, my best friend's father rented a house for a week on Fire Island. We went topless on the beach. It was a gay beach, nobody was really interested in us.

Speaking of the beach, what was the last beach you visited and where (state, country, etc.)? La Jolla CA.

Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it. Took the RV to Lake Powell. It's like Sedona, but with water!

Morning, y’all
Yippee! It’s the weekend and we all know what that means - Hmm.. I think it's time to get caught up with "Projects" around the house I couldn't do during the week..

It’s time for. . .


Today's Questions:

Have you ever, either unintentionally or by choice, gone to a nude beach? If so, tell us about it
(while keeping it PG-13ish) - Hmm.. maybe the time I jumped into a pool and my swim trunks slipped off? - No, I've never gone to a "nude beach"... LOL.. I think just about every beach is a "Semi-nude" beach.. with the way swim suits are designed nowadays...

Speaking of the beach, what was the last beach you visited and where (state, country, etc.)? - Malibu, in California.

Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it. - Hmm.. It rained a lot last weekend, it sure felt like my house was a houseboat.. - No, I never have.

Just for Fun:
Today’s Just for Fun Questions were sent to us by our fun (and funny) correspondent in Fun Land

- Fun Land in Arizona.. It's cheaper than Disneyland.... and a lot less crowded..

Just For Fun:
You've been given the job of producing a movie, what would that movie be about? - Hmm.. My life story? It'll win the "Movie that puts you to sleep" award.. - Actually, it would be based on a true story, or a comedy.

Which location would you choose for that movie? - For a comedy.. Washington, DC...

If it were based on a true story, would you choose the actual location? - Hmm.. I'll try.. Of course if it were to be based on a historic event from 300-400 years ago around New York City, it might be a little tough to film it there.. with all those skyscrapers...

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people? - I'd select some average everyday people like us.

Would you be one of the actors/actresses in this movie? - I would.. Of course I'd have to allocate a lot of the money in the budget for the make-up people... - Actually, not a lead role, but I might appear in a scene or two..

Enjoy your weekend and of course,
Thanks Joy, and everyone enjoy a great Saturday.

One of the beaches on the Ring of Kerry in Ireland two years ago.

Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it. Never rented a houseboat. We lived on a lake in WI and had a pontoon boat that we used to take out to spend the day on the water.

You've been given the job of producing a movie, what would that movie be about? I'd like to make a movie from one of Louise Penny's Inspector Gamache books.

Which location would you choose for that movie? The fictional village of Three Pines, Montreal, Canada.

If it were based on a true story, would you choose the actual location? Montreal, Canada.

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people? A mixture, though I could see most of actors from The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel in it.

Would you be one of the actors/actresses in this movie? No -- I'd be on the set though.

Thanks JJ and happy Saturday everyone!

I so want to play with those cuties.

Yes with the ex in California, but we were fishing and had our clothes on.
Speaking of the beach, what was the last beach you visited and where (state, country, etc.)?
June 29th at the Warren Dunes in Michigan with the shorties. They had never been there and liked it best so far. Of course they did, it's the farthest from our house. They'll be back in school in less then two more weeks.
Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it.
No but I so want to do that. I could fish any time I want to. A friend of mine at work was showing me these house boats in India. It looked so fun.

Thanks JJ you too. My head hurts from getting off at 6am and having to be at work again in another hour and a half. I'm thinking about staying over again tonight. Hours are going to be scarce again. It was easy money yesterday except for the papa that tried to bite me when I tried to reattach him to the ventilator after disconnecting himself for the tenth time. They always get bad at night.

Sure…topless beaches, nude beaches and a few nude resorts but not in the last 10 years or so The first time was when I was about 15. I was freaked out when a nude man got in the mud bath with my friends and I, he was harmless but what did we know, lol. The strangest sight was a woman standing nude on the beach wearing a straw sun hat and nothing else while reading a book. That is an image I will never forget. I do love to swim nekkid

I see some of you talked about Fire Island. Been there and that was the first time I had a woman check me out.

Speaking of the beach, what was the last beach you visited and where (state, country, etc.)? A private island beach in Florida.

Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it. No but that would be cool.



Just For Fun:
You've been given the job of producing a movie, what would that movie be about? No interest in movies

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people?

Yes, several times when I was young and single. It was an enjoyable experience, not sexual at all. People respected each other's boundaries and there was no staring or inappropriate behavior. It was just a fun experience, very liberating.
Speaking of the beach, what was the last beach you visited and where (state, country, etc.)?
It was either Ocean Beach in San Francisco or Carmel Beach in Carmel, I am not sure.
Have you ever rented a houseboat and spent time at/on a lake? If so, tell us about it.
Yes, two girlfriends and I rented a houseboat on the Sacramento Delta one hot summer weekend. I did most of the piloting while they did most of the hanging out, drinking and tanning. We didn't tie up the boat properly that night and the houseboat drifted onto a berm. I think we needed some help to get back in the water again.

A love story

Which location would you choose for that movie?
San Francisco

If it were based on a true story, would you choose the actual location?
It would depend on whether the actual location would be feasible from both an artistic and a production standpoint, i.e. weather and logistics.

Would the cast consist of very famous actors/actresses or not so famous people?
I'd use one or two major names to sell the movie and cast the other parts with some unknowns with talent who deserve a break.

Would you be one of the actors/actresses in this movie?
No. I couldn't act my way out of a paper bag.

Thanks, JustJoy!
