BROOKSVILLE, Fla. (AP) - You've heard of nude beaches, but how about a nude dude ranch? Tim Clements hit a $3.3 million jackpot in 2004, and wants to return to the farm life he grew up in. Clements and David Jennings, co-owner of the ranch, said the farm is secluded enough to be in the buff.
But they have two big problems _ local zoning laws and a nudity ban in Hernando County.
Clements said they'll try to get the necessary paperwork, but if they can't get approval he'll close the CJ Ranch again to all but friends.
Though their Web site says clothing is optional, there is a caveat: Everyone "must wear pants and boots to ride the horses."
