off the grid for two nights

tired,

of everything,

we move off the grid,

quit our

day to day lives

and move into

a log cabin in the woods

off the coast

of Newfoundland.

we're strong

people

with strong back bones.

but there's

no

electricity

or running water.

no food,

just living off the land.

neither of us can

skin

animals or sew.

in three hours we have

blisters

and callouses on

our hands.

we last

two nights,

then go back to town.

we're not

of that kind people.

we love coffee

and toilet paper,

television

and our phones.

next year we're travelling

to Iceland.

but staying

at the Hilton.
