Synopsis:
Chelsea and Jim are transplants from Iowa to California. Their California neighbors invite them to a nude "welcome to the neighborhood party" but the modest Iowans aren't sure they can bare all.

The California sun was lazily rising above the mountain ridges in the Central Valley as Jim and Chelsea Jennings made breakfast in their new home in the Audubon Glades subdivision. They moved here last month from the small Midwestern town of Davis City, Iowa. Even though they were in the great Golden State they were surprised at how isolated they were from the rest of California. This community was like an isolated world of it's own. Jim is an independent consultant working at home for distant clients. One of the perks of working at home like this is the family could live anywhere. They chose to leave the Iowa winters behind and move West. The sheer beauty of the hillsides covered with wildflowers, the perfect weather and a subdivision of attractive homes with all the amenities convinced them this was their Valhalla.
After breakfast Chelsea put on a pair of cutoff denim shorts and a cutoff tee shirt that just covered her medium but firm breasts. She worked hard keeping her 40 year old body fit. The exposed flesh of her abdomen revealed nice six pack abs and a flat tummy while her skin tight shorts exposed her long toned and tan legs. She normally wouldn't go out in public wearing clothes like this but today she was gardening and wanted to stay cool. She loved outdoor gardening and the California sunshine suited her well. She selected a tray of Pink Clematis as a border plant and was in the process of setting them in the ground when Holland Barrister and his wife Audrey wandered by while on a morning walk. Chelsea met Holland the day before and didn't really like the way he looked at her. Today as they approached Holland was staring at the exposed cheeks of her butt that the the too short denim did not cover. She caught him staring and tried tugging the hemline of the shorts down for better coverage as she stood up. She greeted the two who by now had come into her yard. Holland was president of the Audubon Glades homeowners association while Audrey was the Queen Bee of the local Red Hat Society. Together they ran just about every social activity in Audubon Glades and everyone knew them. Chelsea felt creepy that the old guy was now staring at her breasts then let his eyes wander down her shapely curves stopping at the area formed by the juncture of her legs. The denim was tightly pressed against her womanhood not leaving much to the imagination as it highlighted all the nuances of her pelvic curves.
Audrey spoke first as she greeted Chelsea. "The Association is having a pool party at the clubhouse this Friday night. All the neighbors will be there and we hope you can come."
Chelsea replied, "Jim and I would love to meet some more of the neighbors. In the 4 weeks that we've been here we have met quite a few people but we haven't met everybody."
Audrey quizzed her, "Are you sure you will be able to come? I'm asking because a few of us want to make it a welcome to the neighborhood party for you and Jim."
"Thank you. We definitely will be there," Chelsea said happily at hearing this.
Holland spoke up, "Tell her the rest of the news Audy."
Audrey continued, "well, as you know I'm Queen Bee of the Red Hats. We Red Hats are a society of woman who wear Red Hats and Purple Boas because we can. Our motto is not to care what the world thinks of us and what we do. When we planned your welcome party this week we needed a theme that is relevant to current events and yet outrageous in the Red Hat tradition. National Nude Day is coming and we thought, what the hell, we'll have a neighborhood nude pool party! The dress code will be au naturel. Holland and I are so glad you and Jim are not a bunch of prudes and will be there to join the fun."
Holland leered at her one more time as he and Audrey resumed their walk. Chelsea lost her voice as she stood in the yard with her mouth agape as the couple left.
Chelsea hurried back inside visibly shaking. Jim was at his computer deeply engrossed in a job for a client when he looked up and saw his gorgeous wife enter the room practically in tears. Jim loved Chelsea. He admired the way the cutoff tee shirt exposed her navel and that flat tummy. His eyes scanned her body hugging shorts that looked painted on. She was definitely hot and he was a lucky guy.
"Hey Babe, you look stressed out," Jim gestured to her, "what's up?"
