Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll

Leslie,
You need not go any farther than Provincetown, Massachusetts for a nude beach.
At the end of Route 6 is Herring Cove Beach. From the main parking lot, if you walk to the right on the beach a long ways up you'll see where the girls hang out naked. If you walk to the left side a long ways up thats where the boys are. As I've walked there I have noticed mixed boy/girl couples past the regular familes but before the naked guys. The clothed families stay near the center section. I've seen topless girls with their clothed boyfriends at the halfway point.
It is not an "Official" nude beach. But it seems to be tolerated. The National Parks Rangers often will drive right by and not say anything as long as people are behaving themselves. But I've heard that they sometimes will stop and tell folks to get dressed. But not when I was there! ::)

I think the general line with the NPS is that it is tolerated. That is the case on Fire Island (Davis Park, Cherry Grove, the Pines), the beach near Cape Canaveral in FL, and some in California.
One of these days I'll get to P-town. I've actually only been to the Cape once! Nice beach on Martha's Vineyard, too, I've heard. The one closest to me would have been near Newburyport, MA but is was closed to protect the piper plover habitat.
Maybe, to keep this on topic, I need to repost that picture of a skinny dipping Ellery...in fact, I will, since I know we have newcomers who might not have seen it yet.
He took a little sojurn over to another thread (they were discussing the weather) but he is back now, where he belongs. Hi El!

TFW? I hope not!
Phillip created BetterMost as a "Safe Haven" for all BBM fans. Sort of a nuetral country like Switzerland! LOL.
This is where the Refugees from IMDB and other boards have fled to for comfort and safety. Granted, there are some BetterMostians that have never entered these threads. They are no doubt "Purists" who only want to study the book/movie. But thats OK too. They respect our enjoyment of the E&E saga as much as we love Ennis and Jack.
There have been a few bruised egos and people that have left, but 99.9% of us play well together here. As BBM told us, you either "Stand it or fix it". And those that can't do either .. well, they retreat to their trailers and sulk until they are ready to rejoin society.
And to quote Forest Gump...."and that's all I have to say on that subject".

Bettermost is a safe haven, and I am willing to leave it at that.
I had momentary abberration yesterday and ventured away...as Helen said, it must have been the heat. Or maybe as with Dorothy, you need to see something else to know "there's no place like home." How very true. I am glad to be here with all you wonderful folks.
And I am eager....very eager, are you listening Louise?....for our next installment! Louise had a slight cultural break yesterday, now it is time for the writing to re-commence!

heheheh oh sure, blame it all on me.
Unfortunately for you guys, I am jet setting in Europe doing software consulting, and today is just one of those days when I have to ... well you know... consult.
