Interesting how much we are dependent on technology. Today marks my return to Maryland. My daughter and I have been vacationing in South Carolina for the past week. I’m a business owner, and a freelance writer so staying on top of my email is important even when I’m taking a break.

The funny thing is I wasn’t able to get access to the internet from the waterfront condo. I loaded up my 17″ MacBook Pro and traveled a mile away to a Wi-Fi hotspot and I was on. I was surprised (and relieved) that they had a hotspot that close. I vacation in a rural part of South Carolina at least twice yearly the majority of my correspondence requires an internet connection. I respond to clients, write articles, and am alerted when my customers and clients pay me online.

Not too much of my vacation was spent working. I actually took time to enjoy myself, rest, and have fun.
