Fascinating little video! Cell, wifi and microwave oven free area...

Couldn't live there, I'd starve as I'm the microwave queen. And no internet???? Yikes.

Interesting video. Think we are just spoiled??

I think that's neat! It basically forces the community to retain the sense of community that is so lacking now days.

Thanks Sharon.
It's only a few hours from me. I checked their website and they have tours and such. Something to plan for a Spring getaway.

The one young woman said they had internet, just no wifi. If it stays in the wire the are ok, its things that broadcast.



While the phones are a convenience it's also interesting how quickly people become attached to the phones and social media. One of the things I like about camping is leaving the phones on the counter and going outside to enjoy the day.

I know, but it would only put me 10+- miles closer to you.

Thank you for posting this. It's wonderful!

Don't you gals get too crazy out there! You might just cause "the Big One" and knock California right in the ocean!

Love it - and I think families are most likely better off - while I love technology, I love it best when some things are kept in their place.

I think it's cool - even if it's because of research and not an actual way of life (unless I misunderstood). I don't have a home phone or a 'smart' phone, just have a texting cell phone. My job is in technology and I'd really rather not deal with some things when I'm not at work. Yes, I may get better phone when I get on the road, but for now, I like the peace & quiet.

People are actually talking to each other, not on their ipads sitting across the table from each other. I think this is a neat place but I would be lost without some of the technology. When I am working during the summer I do live without my microwave but when I am home I'd be lost without it.
