THE WOODS CAMPGROUND! What a blast!

I had the most amazing weekend performing at the new All-Gay Campground in the Pocono Mountains in Lehighton, Pennsylvania. THE WOODS is simply Fabulous! The owners John Adams and Pat have created the ultimate camping experience. You can rent cabins that sleeps up to five people or you can RV it. I found a lot of boys just like to pitch tents. LOL

I loved walking around the hundred-acre grounds and seeing all the different camping sites. The boys (and girls) – 500 strong on Memorial Day weekend -- love decorating the sites in rainbows, flags, and lots of stringed lights.



The clientele is from everywhere and come in for just a day or night pass. Others spend the whole summer there.



There’s a large swimming pool and a lake with walking trails. I hiked it and couldn’t get over the beauty.

I hear there’s a midnight nude hike every Saturday night! Just boots and flashlight. Paints quite a pretty picture, huh?!



There’s an onsite restaurant that’s open all day until dinner, a nightclub for dancing, and a huge Bon Fire every evening. The night I was there I was asked to light it. It took forever! But when it took off it was huge! I quickly retreated. I was afraid I was gonna go up in flames!

One of my favorite things is volleyball and they boys played all day long! There truly is something for everyone and I can’t suggest this highly enough to all of you that enjoy nature. I should also let you know that it’s clothing optional. I would say only about 10% of the people were nude. Tee hee.



I’m planning on going when I return to NYC in September. I can’t wait.! Go to there Website and just browse… THEWOODSCAMPGROUND.COM



A very special thank you to Dan who made the whole thing happen. So adorable!!!

It's my BIRTHDAY Parties!!

The only thing that makes birthdays fun for me is the idea that I will be with my friends. And this birthday was A LOT OF FUN! I actually had three celebrations planned. The first was on my actual birthday Wednesday, January 3rd. I was to host a “Game Night” with four friends at my place but I came down with a tummy flu and had to cancel.



This fact that my actual birthday would be a little tragic on some level didn’t come as that much of a surprise to me.



The third of January seems like it would be a great day. It’s the new year, fresh beginnings, new starts. But what I have learned is that most people are broke from Christmas and partied out from New Years Eve. One would think that’s enough to deal with. But no! I also share the day with my brother who is exactly to the day one year younger. Yes, even my first birthday was ruined. During my party – my very first one – my Mom was whisked from the house to give birth to my brother James. It’s been all downhill from there.


My second scheduled party this year took place and was a blast! It was a cocktail party at my place on Friday, Jan. 5 and it was a total blow-out, out-of-control til 3 am, so much so that we moved the party to the piano bar Marie’s Crisis. (It’s nice to live so close to a bar. You can always use it as a “Lets move on/Get out of my house” spot.)


On Sunday, January 7th there was another big birthday extravaganza, this time at VLADA LOUNGE. It was truly amazing and I was genuinely overwhelmed at the turn out of people. I had three amazing guest performers: Marty Thomas, Traila Trash, and the ever smashing, MADAME! with Joe Kovacs. All three were hysterical and I can’t thank them enough for entertaining all of us. During the show I received an amazing gift from my friend Joe who painted me a Warhol-esque painting of ME!

I absolutely love it. It’s overwhelming to receive such a generous gift. I will love it forever. I think that’s why it’s so overwhelming. It’s something that I will treasure forever!!



After the show the party got wild with people acting foolish. A British couple got super wasted and was trying to force me to hang out with them. I love socializing but I hate it when people grab me and try to pull me down to a seated level. I’m a tall girl. It’s a long way to go!



In short, we danced and drank Veuve Cliquot and took lots of pictures. There was even one moment where some hot beautiful black man had his pants down and MADAME took the opportunity to pose with his derriere.


I love my friends!!!
