Now And Zen -- Clothes Don't Always Make The Traveler

Travel Editor:

My wife and I enjoyed reading Jim Molnar's article "Now & Zen" (Travel, May 9).

We have been to most of the family-friendly clothing-optional resorts and bed-and-breakfasts here in the Northwest, but have not been to Orr Hot Springs yet.

The article has encouraged us to try it out this fall.

Washington also has some fine clothing-optional getaway locations: Lake Bronson in Sultan, Fraternity Snoqualmie in Issaquah, Kaniksu Ranch near Spokane, and Lake Associates Recreation Club near Mt. Vernon. Doe Bay on Orcas Island also affords a degree of clothing optional recreation. . . .

Thanks again for the fine article. Mark Storey
