Too funny, most of us wouldn't see a problem with this....
Annie’s Mailbox
Dear Annie: My wife and I are lucky to live near the friendliest, most helpful neighbors we could ask for. They are a middle-age
European couple who moved to the States two years ago.
Here’s the problem. They have a swimming pool in their backyard, and when they use it, they do not wear swimsuits.
When I am outside, I simply try to look the other way and ignore them. However, when they see me or my wife, they almost always call out
to say hello and start a conversation. My wife is not bothered by it, and will go over and talk with them. However, I’m not so comfortable.
My wife says I am overreacting, but I don’t think I should be uncomfortable in my own yard. Can you help?

Dear Neighbors: You cannot stop the folks next door from sunbathing nude unless there are restrictions in your town. You also should not be
reluctant to use your own yard when the neighbors are out. The solution truly is a fence or perhaps shrubbery.
