Each nudist resort is a unique place. Some are completely geared to transient visitors and all facilities are shared communally. On the other extreme, some are almost entirely geared the long term residents and there may be few, if any, transient facilities. This latter style of resort becomes mostly a clothing optional retirement facility, usually full of mobile homes. Many resorts, including Broke Oak, are in between the extremes.
Broke Oak has scores of fulltime housing consisting of mobile homes or modular homes with property almost the sizes of a city neighborhood. Almost. There are scores of short-term transient 'hookups' oriented spaces for travelers, winter Texans, and such. But there is also a group of dozens of the short term hookups that have, by nature of persistent residents, become mid-length 'hooked up' sites. The Broke Oak community lives close together both physically and socialy. The live mostly in travel trailers, 5th wheel rigs or Winnebagos, etc. Mostly the rigs haven't been moved lately and possibly could not. Almost all are owned by someone that did not move the vehicle here and won't remove it from here.
But the upshot of all of this is that all the folks on that continuum of quarters find some manner, somehow, to become a community of sorts. Yes, there is a pecking order to some extent, but it is fairly fluid and allows a lot of diversity and inclusivity.
Out of its winter Texans, weekend guests, and full time residents, Broke Oak has a population between 40 and 150, depending on ... whatever! Among that population we have about 4 people that give a reasonable massage. Two of us are properly licensed; two of us are radical libertarians that reject licensing. All of us give a decent massage. I am one of the radicals that learned my skill my OJT and by being the victim from time to time.
I have kind of gotten sweet on one of the licensed therapists, Faye. I am not ready for a move in, marry up, or even 'exclusive' relationship. But I am ready to get close enough that we can grow on each other. I live in a mobile home on a circle that directly borders the 'long term' traveler area (read that as once upon a time travelers, now staying here long term!) Faye lives in this section.
Here I am in my sixties and I live naked with scores of other naked people. And I get tongue-tied, nervous, and stutter talking to a single woman my own age. It is embarrassing. Male or female, a virtual stranger in the café can ask my opinion on the fine points of pubic grooming and we do fine with our conversation. But trying to work out a social footing with a single woman is completely frightening -- scary to the bone. Well, not THAT bone.
Faye is quite a stunning woman. She and I have been exchanging massages weekly or more for almost three months. This morning, after breakfast we walked to our homes together. It is about 2 blocks, but with motivation it can be done fairly slowly and give about 5 minutes to talk without the entire table listening in. This was the afternoon for our massage and it was my turn to come to her place and massage her. We both skip lunch on massage days and then share a light snack or salad after the massage and about a 30 minute cool down.
As we walked, Faye offered "Gus, we have been sharing massages for months now and we have always done things very proper and by the book. But I think we need to kick our massages up a notch."
Assuming she was needing maybe twice a week, I guessed "You mean do them two days every week?"
