  • Column: Leave the cell phones...

    It’s been said time and time again.
    “Kids are too wrapped up in their video games, and they need to get outside.”

    Camping in a tent under the stars, smelling themountain air and above all, having no cell phone service.
    A weekend without cell phone distraction, Facebook and Twitter.
    To say the least, it was way better than most people would think.
    To me, getting outside is something that is relaxing.
