Kind of a vague entry, I know. But I went through a phase (rather long one) where I thought it’d be all I needed to just live on some isolated island with a hot wife (why would I daydream about an ugly wife, really) and a couple of kids. I never said it was practical, but it was a dream.

I get. Simplicity can be a great dream.

Her sun-kissed face turned up to be me-kissed. That was a great line, especially the “me-kissed” portion. I think we all could use more simplicity.

I actually had a similar retirement dream, to open up a little sand bar on Orient Beach (a nude beach) in Sint Maarten/St. Martin (the French side). You open up every day, not caring if you make a profit or not, and watch the lovelies go by all day long…

Man, never mind the whole writing nonsense. This is the ticket! Great entry.
LoA

Sounds lovely, not practical (what would you eat?), but lovely!

Reminds me of my desire to leave the hustle of corporate Corporate America and open a hardware store in Smalltown, USA .

Um, hello. We’d eat coconuts. Coconuts, bananas, and lots of fish. I had it all worked out, maybe even a little sugar cane crop or some yams maybe.

Pfft…people managed to live for thousands of years in remote Oceania without any of the conveniences of today. I’m sure they could survive juuust fine.

Sounds like a worthy daydream. : )

People should aspire to be this when they grow up well into their fifties, at least. BARomero – run me a tab at your place and I’ll do the same for you at my St Barts beach bar.

Man now you got me dreaming. Who needs college and a career when you got a desert island?!

Hmm… This is an excellent entry. Not what I expected to see in this category. Sounds like a more perfect scenario, peaceful, serene.. I can almost feel the tension melt away.. :D

I wanted to live on Gilligan’s Island,this takes me there in a way.

Quite the awesome entry! WTG !

Man, if only we could all do this. Of course, I would exchange the hot wife for hot husband, but you know… great entry!
