Hey Neogeo, that is a really good trip report. It sounds like it was a beautiful day at the Springs. This is why I like the week days - I usually choose Fridays for my sojourns to DCHS. I almost came down on Friday but was unable to get away from work – I would have been one more “nude” to add to the stats. Your Jobe-style-statistics proves one of the things I have been saying all along. NUDE CRITICAL MASS is a way to encourage others to experience the Springs sans suit. You probably noticed as people arrived they surveyed the situation, noticed that the majority was nude and thought, “what the heck” I guess I’ll try nude.” I’ve seen this for myself. We were sitting in the Springs one day when a couple showed up, they surveyed the situation, a little hesitant at first but eventually warmed up to the idea of soaking nude. Later, they said they had a great time and it felt really good to be free. My wife will not soak nude or top free if there are textile men present. However, if everyone is nude she will be more like to soak nude or top free. However, everyone is different and the Springs should be a place where freedom exists for all people to experience. My point is - NUDE CRITICAL MASS is important, so, lets all soak nude.
