That is so awesome Jane. I too long for that. All my life, for as long as I can remember, I have felt the draw of the woods. I cannot fully describe it other than this pull that says come to me. Like the woods are talking to me. I so wish I could say goodbye to the concrete jungle and just retire in some remote place away from the huge city life. Not necessary off the grid as I do enjoy a cup of coffee and wine. :)
You lead a charmed life if you were able to spend 5 weeks away. I am happy for you. :)
Vin.
In my popup I was often off the grid. I had solar for 12V power, and propane for a gas stove and refrig! Lots of coffee and wine (and Bloody Mary made with V8 now and then when I need more veggies).
I wish I had 6 weeks every year. I am a minister and get a sabbatical every 7 years. We used to get much longer, but church budgets are tight (it is paid time off).
So many good writes talk about the lure of the wilderness. I have some book lists on my blog...can send you links! Jane
