Lost opportunity to use a wooden chair.
post
It would be a better photo if it were a toilet seat.
Any seat is a toilet seat if you shit on it.
I found a shit box in the woods once
This but with a sturdy, wooden, mossy bench that was built an unknown number of years ago
This is all well and good for a couple of hours. Then it gets cold, and you get hungry, and the mosquitoes swarm.
Hopefully, just out of camera view, there is a warm, cozy cabin with electricity, hot and cold running water, at least a septic system, but preferably city sewer, and of course, internet.
I'm too old and pessimistic for this world.
All I can think of is how there's guaranteed to be massive spiders, and you'd be on high alert for wolves, bears, snakes, alligators, whatever there might be wherever that is.
No no, the secret is being so pessimistic you don't care about dying.
Having done field work for health departments I have come across more than a few sites like this, often in proximity to some pretty dark and miserable situations.
I frequently think about how those spaces might've been important in some way to the person who had once resided in the tent or burned out trailer nearby. Those places probably were the few spaces of peace they experienced.
I can't but imagine someone put that chair there to enjoy the quietness and the wild. Then he heard the buzzing of a flying drone, got off the chair, ran in the woods screaming "THERE IS NO PLACE LEFT ON EARTH I CAN ENJOY!!!".
And we're here, looking at that picture, and arguing about whether this would be a good setup for each of us individually, all assuming no drone presence, of course.
I can feel a storm approaching...
