Funny moments
I was going to post this in the "Embarrassing Moments" thread, but it wasn't embarrassing (at least to me) so maybe we can start a new collection.
My house sits on the rear corner of20 very rural acres of forested property, bordered on the North and East by 14,000 acres of forested State Game Lands. A short window is open on the South side to far-reaching farm fields. This lets me spend most of my summer time with out clothing except for a short haying season andby occasional instances when the nearest neighbor lady hikes the fields with her dog.
On the corner of my property nearest this lady's house is where I cut and stack fire wood both as an exercise program and supplemental heat source. This corner is near the back line of the lady's property, so in order to avoid conflicts, I've built my stacked wood into a squared off "U" shape where I can work in the center of the U and not be seen except for a narrow area of the fields.
Several weeks ago, on a slightly overcast Sunday morning, I went to split wood already placed in the U. As the sky cleared and the sun was shining into my work area, I discarded my clothing and went to work. (one photo in my profile is from that morning)As I was getting into the rhythm of splitting and stacking I hear from the driveway side of the wood pile; "Excuse me sir. I'd like to ask you some questions about the camp for sale down the road." I look up to see a man approaching the wood pile and as he got to the spot where he could see into my alcove he shouted "OH JESUS, I'M SORRY!!". He looked mortified and really embarrassed at first, but I laughed and replied, "It's too late now, what do you need." He seemed to relax a little and proceeded to ask questions about some property for sale near by. We talked for about 15 minutes and I never did retrieve my clothes which were some distance away.
In his car, in the drive, was a woman who never got out. I wonder what his reaction would have been if she's have wanted to join the conversation!! I told my wife about the incident and we have a laugh every time we mention it. I'm curious to see if they ever become our neighbors.
Ilike sunbathing in my well screened back garden. One time a friend burst in and said "Careful THAT will get burnt". I told him it was as well protected against the sun as every other part of me. Another time a lady burst in collecting for charity. I was lying on my front at the time. I heard her retreat to the corner and shout "Are you descent". She knew I wasn't. I donned a skimpy see-through sarong to talk to her. Later she kept on talking about it, saying she liked my bum.
