We contemplated the oil companies' desire to rape all of us Americans at the pump of our hard earned green; then we threw caution to the wind and decided, what-the-hell, let's go for it. So off we are hiking the Great Smokey Mountains. Going all primitive: no showers (but we'll take whore baths; boil pots of water and washing with soap down to our possibles and up to our possibles), no A/C, no electricity, no blogging. Instead: lots of family bonding, singing classic rock tunes by the campfire, JiffyPop, roasting marshmallows, playing games with the moon as our lantern, reading a book as we rest by a waterfall, and avoiding black bears.
I love the simple life, embraced with nature.

Matt, this is a small get adventurious get away. LAst year we did nearly a month with our back packs...RE: this blog June 2007. And, I doubt any blood would be shed if your family tried this. It is actually very theraputic. Cleans the mind, body and spirit--being one with nature.
