If you had to live without modern-day-conveniences..
How well would you do?

Well, considering I love camping, I think I'd do pretty good. Nothing better than a campfire breakfast/dinner.  |

I'd do okay since I love to camp too but I would get bored. no TV, computer, radio....what would I do? not to mention no car! It would be hard to go back to living that way after being spoiled with today's conveniences.

Pen, paper, and somewhere to sit. That is all I need.

I wouldn't really mind not having a tv, radio or computer.
Not having a car would make like a little dull (since it'd take 3 days to travel just across the state).
It would be nice to have more time to canoing and playing sports and stuff outside with my friends.

I guess I'd have to learn to gut a fish :?
I love camping as well so it prolly wouldn't be too bad, and lighting fires is my specialty so I'd never be cold and always entertained.

I think I would do just fine.....but I'd miss all the personal paper products. I would also chose to live in an area where mosquitos and the heat would not be such a factor....maybe northwest.

I'd be fine, it'd taking some getting use to but I could do it. The hardest part would be going without my computer but I've done it before.
