Escape to Solitude


Discover Your Own Island Getaway


Have you ever felt the urge to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life? In the March/April 1978 issue of Mother Earth News, a fascinating story emerged about a couple who dared to do just that. They purchased McLeod's Island, a secluded 90-acre haven off Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada.

This adventurous pair embraced a life of self-sufficiency, relying largely on the island’s resources. While this lifestyle offered many rewards, it was not without its challenges:

"The sea, you know, is not called 'restless' for nothing. We've witnessed glass-smooth waters transform into a turbulent chaos in mere seconds. We've also seen our bay thaw and refreeze within hours during December.”

Winters on the island could be unpredictable. In 1976, for example, a series of spring-like thaws left the bay filled with slushy ice?"too dangerous for crossing yet impassible by boat. They found themselves isolated for three months. Conversely, a record cold snap the following year allowed them to trek across the ice to the mainland for supplies whenever needed.

Today, with the flexibility offered by the internet, many of us can work and live wherever we desire. However, this couple did not have such a luxury. There is no current information about their fate; perhaps the tides took them on a new adventure.

Life involves sacrifices, though some are more substantial than others. Personally, owning an island may not be in my future.
