Off the Grid

I was completely off the grid for the past week, vacationing in Canada. No cell phone, limited internet access. It was heavenly. So relaxing and enjoyable that I’d say it was even better than our honeymoon…which is a bold assertion.

I am very extreme. I like not exercising, but I also like races. I like Burning Man, but I also like church and the corporate culture. I like staying up late in big cities (no SF, that’s not you), but I also like camping. I enjoy inhaling information–reading the paper, my Twitter feed, catching up with friends on Facebook, but I also enjoy being completely away from it. When was the last time you intentionally refrained from calling, texting, being online?

More thoughts on our trip shortly…
