Lately, I have been having more human sightings whilst hiking the Tandy Hills Natural Area. Pleasant temperatures may be the reason. Way too many weather babies don't venture out hiking when it's 105 in the shade.Today, this 3rd Saturday of November, it is almost 70 out there. Maybe this will warm up my swimming by tomorrow morning. I aborted this morning's swim attempt after about 5 minutes.
I kind of get lost in my thoughts while communing with nature on the Tandy Hills. Today I hike down a hill, cross a creek lined with trees, come out of the trees to start up a steep hill when I am startled by an over-sized guy ahead of me on the hill.
It was a HOT enough to hike shirtless day. It is important to expose as much skin to the sun as possible, periodically, in order to get Vitamin D into the system. It does not take much sun exposure to do the job. But way too many people get way too little sun, and develop a Vitamin D deficiency.
It is not good to be deficient in Vitamin D.

I was told that you had to fore go bathing/showering overnight to experience the benefits of sunny D...is that true?

I had not heard that no bath/shower thing before regarding sunlight causing the manufacture of Vitamin D.
It is absolutely true, Mr. Durango. I go without bathing or showering for weeks at a time, not counting when it rained. I assure you I'm full of it. Your friend, BillyHill. See ya on them hills!!
BillyHill sure is a smart one ;)
