Could you imagine?

(Brought to you through inspiration from Yahoo.com). Tonight, as I'm playing on the internet enjoying some quiet time, I see one place where I am virtually guaranteed to have as much quiet time as I want. The Island of Tristan du Cunha...


This beautiful island is actually an old volcano tip that is known as the most remotely inhabited location on Earth. On our planet!!! It is over 1,300 miles away from the closest inhabited city, and over 1,700 from the Mainland!


Could you imagine living in a place that is so raw? According to internet sources, there are about 270 peoples who call this Island home year-round. They only receive their mail once a year, and we freak out if we can't log into our email (or check out what's going on with "The Best is Yet to Come" blog) daily.

Aaahhh, peace at last, peace at last!
