If I had five days to "get away from it all" I would go to the Saugeen Camp Ground on the Saugeen river near the Saugeen falls in Durham. I could get there in about four hours if I drove, three if I'm fast.
Bit the reason why I want to go there is because it's outside a small town, and ride on the bank of a river. It's peaceful and quite far away enough from civilization to relax, but close enough to a town to run into and get daily necessities... like food. Another reason is most of my relatives live in the Grey County area (which the campground is in) so it would be nice to visit all them folks. It be pretty easy, pack a sleeping bag, tent, pillow, food, clothes, and my mom will worry about the rest (whether I like it or not). So if I wanted to escape this is what I'd and where I'd go, just take it easy for five day's then come back to the craziness. Oh boy.

Blog Entry #5
I think Igby is the most true to himself and lives up to his own ethics and morals because what he says he does, he doesn't keep moping around waiting to get into "the right mood" of things, he tends to take immediate action. Igby like s to annoy people he doesn't like, which is about every one he knows and is quit good at it, and does things to make himself feel better. Even if it means having to work, and working for someone you hate.
Holden however does not live up to his own morals and ethics, and really isn't true to himself, because even though he does rebel and does things to annoy people, and he never really strives for anything, He still at heart wants to live like everyone else, and at times he is. The main problem is he's to lazy to work hard enough to get anywhere and hides behind the excuse that everyone is a bunch of phonies and that really annoys him.
For example, Igby and Holden both seem to want to go off to some other place to "get away" and live their own life the way they want to. At the end of the movie Igby Goes Down Igby decides to go and live in California to do whatever, but at the end of Catcher in the Rye Holden decides to listen to his family, and is going back to school in the fall, he is also getting psychiatric help.
