Alaska, back to basics, eagles, Homer, life in a tent, natural life, nature, no running water, off the grid, summer on the bay, the good life
One summer I worked at a wilderness lodge. I lived in a wall tent under the pines on the edge of China Poot Bay. No running water. Lodge only accessible by boat and floatplane. Once a week, I hitched a ride on the boat to Homer, Alaska to go to the laundromat. While my clothes spun and dried, I paid a dollar for a bar of soap, a towel, and a shower. Here’s a photo of the wall tent and the view from the porch.
