Portsmouth Island

So, I've talked here a little about my desire to check out of the rat race. Funnily, in many ways I already have. I really have never kept a full-time office sort of job. I live a simpler life than many. But photos like these tug at me. Here's an excerpt from the photographer's description of these photos:

"Portsmouth Island is just south of Ocracoke Island (North Carolina) and is accessible only by small boat. Once a thriving community,the last residents left this tiny Island in 1971. This is a photo from inside one of the remaining homes on Portsmouth Island. It looks as if someone had just walked away from this stove and never returned."

I want to be there.
