State Park

One of the few times I was able to stroll in the woods happened over a decade ago, in mid-Missouri. It was early summer, and was so freeing. Walking along a meandering creek bed, I was able to enjoy watching turkey vultures launching from their cliffside nests. I stumbled upon a woodcock who went through its "injured" dance, to draw me away from its nest. Even though the town which is near this state park is relatively liberal, I was relieved that I didn't encounter anyone else; most folks aren't very understanding. ;-)

It was an experience I have never been able to duplicate. I do sleep nude, and avoid dressing until it is absolutely necessary.
