Our society today is pretty much hooked on electronics. Common uses of electricity today are phones, lights, microwaves, iPods, stoves, fans, computers, alarm clocks, Christmas lights, and other digital electronic devices. People almost always have their cell phones or iPods with them. It is a connection to other people, a connection to the rest of the world. IPods are a source of entertainment. So what if we went away, somewhere where we could not use these electronic devices, where they were non-existent. WHAT?! Some of you who are reading this just nearly had a heart attack. Sorry about that, but this is the topic, so this is what I am going to discuss. If you have a history of heart problems, please, stop reading, step away from the computer, and go lie down. For those who are brave enough to go through this electronic stagnation, pleases, continue reading. Thank you.
So, picture yourself in the Teton Mountains. That is in Wyoming for you geography impaired people. You are in a log cabin. There is a little stream behind the cabin. Trees and willow bushes everywhere. The mountains are right there, clear as air, and just majestically huge. The sky is clear blue, and the weather is crisp and cool but sunny. Nature is all around, and it is just plain beautiful. If I were to get away from electronic devices, this is where I would go. I have already gone on vacation here and have described it in an earlier blog, and in short, it is wonderful. It really is. However, I would still miss my cell phone and iPod, because those are my entertainment and connection to the world. If I did not have those things, then I would obviously do something else for entertainment. I would go horse back riding across the mountains for all of the morning. Then I would have a delicious lunch and ice cream. I would then go walking around and just hanging out, relaxing, reading, or take a nap, quite possibly. Then in the evening, I would go fishing and eat a delicious dinner. Then I would just hang out and look at the stars. I really like nature and out doors, if you have not noticed. This is how I would live if I did not have technology for a certain amount of time.
