Today is a big day for Kathy. With the publication of these pictures and story, she is coming out as a nudist to the world. Or at least to her sisters.
While Kathy and her husband, Stephen, have always been "closet nudists" – comfortable being naked in their home – they are newcomers to the nudist club scene.

As we sit around a plastic table in dense bushland on the fringes of Sydney, the retirees explain how they came to be regulars at Australia's oldest nudist club.
"We saw an advertisement, found out it was only a few kilometres away from home, came down and went 'gee, nobody has got horns on their heads here'," Stephen says. "I didn't take my clothes off the first day but when I did I didn't worry about it at all because you feel out of place wearing clothes and everyone just accepts you as you are," Kathy adds.
Nudists, after Snugglepot and Cuddlepie.
The pair are members of the Heritage Australia Club , which was formed in 1949 and is housed on an isolated 10-hectare property overlooking the Georges River in Minto Heights.
"There are no expectations. Nobody expects anything from you. You can just be yourself. As soon as you close that gate behind you, you just seem to relax and all the pressure is gone," Kathy says.
The club has about 50 paid members who attend monthly functions at the property, which largely consists of a few basic cabins and a covered outdoor area. The meeting that I attend feels something like a family picnic in the park – except no one is wearing pants.
The club's members drink white wine out of plastic cups, chatter about boats they used to own and books they have read and go for walks on rough hewn bush tracks.
While I am repeatedly assured that nobody would look at me twice, I have decided to remain a "textile" (the name given to non-nudists).

Like a traditional country club, there are rules of entry and etiquette at nudist clubs.
If you are want to use one of the shared chairs, you must sit on a towel.
When you talk to people, you should look them in the eye.
Friends and family are welcome to attend, but it is always polite to ask other members first.
There is, of course, a "club uniform", but there is no pressure on members who want to stay dressed.
Generally, members follow a simple mantra: if you would not do it with your clothes on, you probably should not do it naked.
But there are some particular hazards that one should be alert to before stripping off including sunburn, bites and "grass cuts" on delicate places.
One of the club's oldest nudists Jill, 75, says there is genuine friendship between the members as everyone is equal when they are naked.
"If you've got nothing on, you've got nothing to hide. What you see is what you get and it doesn't matter where you come from, how old you are, how rich you are, it's the person that you get to know," Jill says.
"It's the feeling of freedom. It's just a totally different feeling to being dressed."
But the future of club nudism is not looking bright, with membership falling dramatically over the past three decades.
The Australian Naturist Federation's president Greg Serow says the federation has 4000 members, about 70 per cent fewer than in the 1970s and '80s.
Mr Serow describes those decades as the "golden days", where club membership surged on the back of the popularity of nudist beaches. "The world sort of seemed to be in this amazing place where anything was possible and everything felt free," Mr Serow says. "Naturism or nudism was incredibly popular. It was just the thing that everybody did all the time."

Club membership is now at the lowest it has ever been, Mr Serow said, with several factors to blame.
Nudist resorts have drawn members away from clubs by providing a more leisure-based, commodified opportunity to go naked without any obligations such as annual fees or duties.
Mass media has led to body image policing and self-consciousness, creating much greater shame about the naked body.
Some nudists even point to the rise of the "Slip, Slop, Slap" campaign and skin cancer awareness, which has made people think twice before exposing their body to the sun.
In addition to this, public social nudity has always struggled for legitimacy.
University of Sydney Associate Professor Ruth Barcan, the author of Nudity: A Cultural Anatomy , said a negative stigma still surrounds social nudism with adherents construed as comic at the least and dangerous at the worst.
"[Nudism] is a rupture of one of the most fundamental social rules of any modern society and it is not the norm socially in any modern society, so in that sense it's going to have to have stigma attached to it," Associate Professor Barcan said.
"Therefore equally part of nudism has always been a very strong public line about it being non-sexual, about it it being wholesome, about being close to nature."
Indeed, many nudists I speak to are quick to emphasise that there is nothing sexual about their nakedness.
At the Heritage Australia Club, I am told within minutes of arriving: "Men don't get erections here, they just don't".
Many regular nudists are private about being part of a club, fearing their nudism will harm their careers or upset family members and friends.
"I think there are a lot of negatives from television and people don't realise there is a huge difference between swingers, hedonists and naturists," club member Stephen says. "I think it is just ignorance."
But as membership declines clubs are finding it difficult to attract a younger generation that could ensure their survival.
At the Heritage Australia Club members range in age from late 20s to mid 70s, although the majority fall into the older age bracket.
Stuart Whelan, the editor of The Australian Naturist Magazine , said young people were still interested in nudism but were not attracted to the organised club structure.

"There seems to be interest in the clothes-free lifestyle but it is a lot less organised, it is more spontaneous. Things like [festivals] Confest or Burning Seed, where nakedness is just part of the scene," Mr Whelan said.
Mr Serow, from the naturist federation, said Generation Y was more interested in gratification than commitment to a club.
"They don't want to be a member of anything and clubs have committees and working bees and duty days and a lot of people these days don't want to get involved in associations like that," Mr Serow said.
"Young people are not talking about calling themselves nudists, they are just getting their kit off."
While there are no clubs specifically for young people, Mr Whelan said some had tried to make themselves a more attractive option.
Older clubs, he said, had attempted to modernise by adding swimming pools, redoing club houses and experimenting with new social events.
"Clubs are a particular breed unto themselves and some are struggling for members but others have made some very clever changes and are meeting the members' needs and thriving," Mr Whelan said.
"I think that unless clubs change and meet the needs of the young population they will go."
There are 50 registered nudist clubs across Australia, with the bulk in NSW, although some put the figure as high as 500 when it includes those that are unregistered.
Heritage Australia Club president Michael is upbeat about the future of his club, despite it having 80 per cent fewer members than it did in the 1980s.
Michael said he was confident the club would survive and the key would be encouraging people who are "home nudists" to make the jump to public nudism.
"There are a lot of people out in society who are closet nudists and just need a bit of a prod to come to the club, they might read about nudism in the newspaper for example, and decide to be game and give it a try."

We already know Heidi Klum is a self-proclaimed nudist . But even that couldn't have prepared us for the images contained in the steamy new photo book, Heidi Klum by Rankin .
The mother-of-four and world-renowned supermodel poses completely naked for a collection of images shot by British photographer Rankin. On why she wanted to do such a risqué and revealing photo shoot now, the 43-year-old model explained that her love of the female form was her inspiration.
"We should be celebrating a woman's body; it doesn't matter what age they are," she told the Daily Mail while at Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief gala in Cannes.
Heidi Klum by Rankin was released Friday and is available for $134 at Marc Jacobs' Greenwich Village store, Bookmarc.

It might be getting colder outside, but these female rugby players have decided it's the perfect time of year for baring all on the pitch.
The all-women Hitchin Ladies Rugby Club squad have once again stripped off for charity to raise money for the club after their funding was slashed and to promote female players in the sport.
Wearing just their club socks and boots - and nothing else - the ladies rugby tackled each other, ran through the field and hid their modesty behind practice bags in photographs for a fundraising calendar.
The women have stripped off for their second nude calendar to raise money and promote women in rugby
The saucy snaps capture scrummy rugby players stripping off for charity to promote women in the sport (pictured, one of last year's snaps)
The photos from this year's calendar sees the women getting into action despite their lack of kit once again
The 2018 calendar by Hitchin Ladies Rugby Club will hit the shelves in November after their inaugural effort last year attracted fans from around the world.
Rapper 50 Cent even shared their steamy snaps to his 40 million Facebook fans.
The pictures released for this year's calendar are taken at the secluded grounds of their Hertfordshire club and capture the girls training.
One shot shows two teammates practicing their tackling without their kit and another shows the girls high-fiving under the posts.
The team have been going strong since 2003 and train together every Tuesday evening so have a close bond (one of this year's pictures from the new calendar)
Bottom's up! The Hitchin ladies bare all for their fundraising calendar - the second year they have posed nude to raise money and promote the sport (pictured, a photo from last year's calendar)
The women weren't afraid to pose in the nude for the naked calendar the first time round, with the photographer even following them into the shower
The women got into a scrum completely naked, wearing just socks and their boots, as one woman attempted to reach for the ball in a snap from last year's calendar
This is one of the only shots from last year's calendar where the women wear any clothes, as one player is being lifted into the air
The women agreed that they weren't embarrassed to get naked as they regularly see each other in the shower (pictured, one of last year's snaps)
Another still shows two girls laying on the grass posed to leap up into practice bags, that are protecting their mates' modesty.
Organiser and inside centre Claire Crompton , 28, said: 'We were never expecting the success we got last year but it'll be nice if it happens again.
'We want to build on our success and we had a recruitment boost due to it as well.
'Even if people look at it and don't want to play rugby it gets the brand out there.
'Someone else might see it too if its hanging up and see if they want to get involved with the sport.
Of the Hitchin Ladies' 28-strong squad, 12 players took part in the shoot including both group and solo shots last year
Photographer and team member Amy Haughton said that she wanted to make the shoot empowering and didn't use photoshop last year
By doing the daring shoot the squad hopes that they will raise the profile of the Hitchin Ladies rugby team (pictured, a snap from last year's calendar)
'Our club is a lot of fun and we like to play good rugby - hopefully people looking at the calendar will see that we like to have fun.'
This year the ladies will be raising cash for the club and money for GB Wheelchair Rugby, after their funding was slashed.
The event worker from Stevenage added: 'We were looking to fund a charity as well this year and we heard on the radio that Team GB wheelchair rugby lost it's funding and I thought it was wrong.
'Rugby is rugby to us, it's important to get the message out there and raise cash.
'I hope people get a calendar as it is for a really good cause and if they liked last years they'll love this years.'
The calendars are on sale for £10 and are available from http://shop.hitchinrugby.com.
This is very disappointing -------------for those ...

You probably won't see this at Disney World: A group of people rode naked on a rollercoaster in England Sunday to try to break a record.
They fell short, but still attracted plenty of attention and raised more than $15,000 for charity, the BBC reported.
Fifty-seven uninhibited amusement-park patrons hopped aboard Adventure Island's Green Scream ride in Southend-on-Sea. While their flesh was willing, participation was relatively weak. The existing Guinness World Record dates back to 2010 when 102 people rode the same ride , the Mirror noted.
The Southend Hospital Charitable Foundation's Keyhole Cancer Appeal was still a winner nonetheless.
"It takes a lot of nerve to take off all your clothes in front of complete strangers, plus the world's media, so we would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who was brave enough to bare all and raise such a huge amount of cash for our vitally important cause," the charity's Lucy Thomas-Clayton told the BBC.
According to the Belfast Telegraph, naked riders traveled from all over the United Kingdom to take part. Nice going, everyone.
