Who knows how long this set of photos has been passed around on blogs and such, all I know is that the day I found them was the day I wanted nothing more than to give up my schedule, quit my job, quit my blog and move out to the country with Jake and lead a simpler life. It's that "into the wild" mindset that's inevitable to humans at times, I guess, but I've been feeling it a lot lately. Maybe I'm just tired, or maybe I've been listening to too much southern porch music. I know I can't very well quit my jobs or school, but I talked to Jake and he's definitely down for living in the country (and we are in 'the natural state'. . .) We'll see where that takes us. For now we're casually clipping newspaper ads, looking for potential places.
These photographs from photographer Sully Sullivan capture that mindset perfectly. The video by Jewell & Ginnie just helps bring it all to life.
