Happy Half-Nekkid Thursday

It was Barbara's 50th birthday weekend (same weekend that the shot of
my moon was taken). We were where we always were on weekends in the summer, at Watch Hill on Fire Island on the our boat. The air conditioning water pump shut down because the water intake under the boat, got clogged with eel grass (sort of a sea weed for those not familiar with the bottom of the Great South Bay. Nothing to do except go in the water and clean it.


The bottom between the boats is mostly mud and muck and really disgusting. So when I was done, I had to take a shower. Barbara (that's her in the picture) wouldn't let me in the boat all muddy and mucky so I took the shower on the swim platform on the back of the boat. There's a faucet in the back of the boat with hot and cold water, where a hand shower attaches, so it wasn't bad. My sister-in-law saw a photo op and got me with shower head in my bathing suit rinsing off my, uh, privates in this one. I was so embarrassed. ;)

  1. Uh huh...cleaning the water pump. That's what they call it these days, huh? Looks like you and the boat were getting a little time together, if you know what I mean! ;)

    Happy HNT BTE!!!

  19. Thank you all for the nice things you said and I’m glad my humiliation could bring some happiness to you all this fine H-N Thursday. I really wasn’t embarrassed, but wanted my sister-in-law to think I was. I would have showered naked back there if my wife had let me. Besides, you all know how good spraying water on that area feels, so I couldn’t miss the opportunity, could I?

    Jenny: About the only parts of my body that see sun are my legs, arms and face. I burn very easily so have to stay covered up. So from my neck my ass are so white the sunlight, and even the moonlight reflect off of it. Yes, it can even be blinding. ;)

    Mike: A man and his boat do become very close, but not that close. LOL

    Yes addicts’s daughter, you’re right. Some of us aren’t playing with a full deck.

    Clarity: Long Island and Fire Island are both great places. It’s just too bad it’s so darn expensive to live here.
