I remained in camp, because of the equipment and such that was still there. The rest pulled for home in front of the coming storm, taking all of the vehicles with them. They promised to be back in a couple of days.
I stoked the stove and slipped into my sleeping bag near by. A small insect bit me on my left side. I simply swatted the bug, and brushed it out of my bag. Next morning, it was a little red spot that itched.
That night a storm began that ended up laying down 6 inches of ice, took out a large part of the area power, and pretty much stopped everything in its tracks out in the world. That morning it started to swell for real. Over the next four days, I tried all of the self remedies, but the knot kept getting bigger, and I kept getting sicker.
By the time I realized how how much trouble I was in, I was no longer was capable of walking out on my own, due to the conditions. I was having fever dreams when they came back to get me and the rest of the gear on the fifth day after I was bitten. I took a shower, and went directly to the hospital, but could not be seen. The ice had the emergency room overflowing and the wait to be seen was over 15 hours. One of the Med-Stop type clinics pumped me full of antibiotics, and they sent me home.
The scar is a trophy today, where they had to cut the whole area away, but it also carries a hard lesson. Alone, I would likely have died from such a simple little incident.
Comfort is not all that the modern world has to offer.

but as i drive through my city i cant help but be disgusted with how badly over populated it is and how much of an a hole most people are ... i just want a pure life for me and my kids and i would rather work my butt off and keep thwm pure and free of the negativity . Then live in this melting pot of thugs and gangster wanna be s shooting eachother and begging for money . S.w. florida has a pill epidemic going on bad . And everyone here is a junky . I have even fell into it a few times with a hard hard recovery . And i need an escape.
"Be the change you want to see in the world"-Ghandi. Before you take off ask yourself if you're going to Oregon or running from Florida. The answer to that question makes all the difference. I felt like I needed to say that. You remind me of someone.... now let's talk about killing things with bows and eating them and wearing their fur and stuff!

But....
Now that i have been spoiled by "Civilization"im not sure if i could live this way completely or not.
