Yes, last night it was hailing. And this morning we woke up to the sight of snow, crusting the ground and shining on the roofs of parked cars. Hail. Snow. The week before Easter! But the day before that…
The day before that was our first outing in Central Park for the year, and my, but it was lovely. Grass under our bare feet. Sun on our bare shoulders. A lovely spring breeze. A troupe of incredibly talented acrobats spent the afternoon doing backflips, one after another, and we watched, agog with delight and wonder. And the books we dipped into — some Steinbeck, some Werner Herzog, some Lawrence Block and Samuel Fuller, not to mention some deliriously pulpy adventure yarns about a finder of rare artifacts called Gabriel Hunt.
And the edibles: baked goods courtesy of Pain Quotidien (a last blast of leavening before Passover kicked in for some of us), plus Easter eggs in all the shades of the chocolate rainbow.
It’s good to have a reminder that, yes, indeed, it is spring.
Hail notwithstanding.

Not that I live anywhere near New York, so for me it’s rather a moot point, but I keep wondering if men can join your group. I realize that it’s not particularly “scandalous” for a man to be topless, but I am a naturist and I support the top-free cause as I support equality for women in general. And I love reading!
We do have a small number of men at our events; if you poke through the blog you can even find a photo or two of them. But it is primarily a female group.
Ah, great! Well, then, if I ever find myself in New York in the summer (although on my budget that’s not likely!), I’ll try to find out in advance what your group is doing! 🙂
So nice to see all of you enjoying such a beautiful day!!!
I wonder … did you all meet at the same tattoo parlor?
Nope. 🙂
I’ve got another question, but it’s not directly related to the cause. I’m curious as to the meaning of the symbol the girl in the second photo (with the dark glasses) has tattooed on her stomach.
Ever see “Twin Peaks”?
No. I take it it’s a reference to that show then? 🙂
Nice that you took advantage of the weather window, ladies. (Frozen snow caking my car this morning, in mid-April? Unfair.)
And at the risk of singling out one picture, the floppy hat flower skirt one is particularly lovely.
I thought that was a particularly good picture as well.
If you don’t mind my saying so, your boobs are great, but your writing is quite nice too.
Happy Easter to all! Love the hat.
Wonderful! Good for you all!
All I can say are these:
Welcome back!
Thanks for the visual indulgence. …
…and hopefully I’ll see you when I ride my bicycle into Manhattan.

Chilly spring debut for the topless pulp fiction group
Thanks for this good post. It’s so beautiful free woman !
Really clear pics!!
Muahhhhh… really it will be a great easter
Love the hats!
Is that a Twin Peaks/Black Lodge tattoo in the second picture??
It is, indeed.
Do I detect some new faces in the crowd? Or is that just the dementia talking?
Some. 🙂
That photo with the hat and the hair is amazing. Congrats to the photog and, of course, the subject.
From the sunny skies of Costa Rica, greetings to you all. The sun will glow in New York soon, so keep trying …
