A Vermont woman tried to wriggle out of a citation of indecency in Florida this week by claiming that swimming in the buff was legal in her home state.

Tiana Maranville and her husband Alexander, both of Proctor, Vermont, were charged with indecent exposure and allegedly engaging in aquatic sexual activity in view of Sanibel beach goers.

Maranville was not entirely correct in her assessment of state law.

It's true that there are no state or local laws in Vermont that prohibit public nudity, but there are limitations.

Nudity alone isn't a crime — "unless you manipulate yourself, unless you're looking for gratification or make comments to that effect," Burlington police Lt. Jon Young said in July. "Then it becomes an L-and-L," or lewd and lascivious behavior.

So be warned. There are a number of skinny dipping lists online that include Burlington beach areas.
