    I am Another You

    I saw it a few months ago on PBS or whatever the local version is in Arizona. I got lucky but that's all I watch and discovery, when I do. It was so well made. The narrator would meet up with the guy over the course of a couple years and hang out with him, and it really got into the psyche of...

    pirate ship startup

    That is seriously impressive that you anchored on the West Coast. I was in a slip for about 4 months in So Cal. I know what you mean about boats getting washed up, Harbor Patrol hated the guys on anchor and would call them derelich boats, I realize now because they were just waiting for one to...

    Developing homestead in NorCal looking to expand our community

    People love to rebuild those old trailers or just keep them around for housing, so something to check out. Also, that creek could be dredged down to bedrock if you're into prospecting for gold. Really cool property, interesting project also. Thanks for sharing. I had one short term gig in that...

    Anyone living near AshFork, AZ or Kaibab Knolls?

    Yeah you can squat on your land, with little chance of being bothered. Set up a greenhouse or privacy fence, and you won't bug any neighbors. Having a trailer is for long term residence, and I think you can do an outhouse instead of septic if the municipality ever required it. Sound like you...

    Anyone living near AshFork, AZ or Kaibab Knolls?

    Basically my understanding is pull up a trailer and call it good. Everything else is an outbuilding. Just keep your car running. I'm even further out, on the other side of Flagstaff. And yeah secure your stuff from what I hear.

    Hi!

    Hey, I homestead too in the high desert. I was drawn to the cheap prices of land out there. I dig the low cost and diy aspects the most. Also freelance a bit. I like working on cars as a hobby and also out of necessity, so it's nice to have a space. Ideally I'll get up to Alaska with a second...

    Where to go from here? Frustrated with finding community off the road

    That's cool you guys have a Co-op going. The closest I got was 3 friends and myself in college, before I got financial aid, so it only lasted a month with some really good times and psychedelics. I did stay at an old Route 66 hotel turned into a hostel once in NM, more meant for travelers, but...

    Owning land?

    Alaska is my next stop. I think their is a lot going on up there. I'm into mineral claims too, and it's like the holy grail of states to get one. Haven't ever done paperwork on one yet though. Even though AZ is an okay state to work one. If you have a car you could stay on it too if you were...

    Kombucha for feeling good and for DT's

    I have heard about Kombucha, interesting the probiotics and also somewhat fermented from what I hear. Personally I'm really into drinking tea after a night of drinking or whatnot, and in general love tea. Also a fresh salad for when I have been lacking food, and not eating enough. It straight...

    Owning land?

    It's very possible. Personally I feel the same way and like having a spot for a home base. I think if it as a back up plan and investment. The best way to do it is to know what resources you have that can help meet your needs once you are on a peice of land, like eBay, craft, freelance work...

    That's cool man. And score on landing a boat, they are out there I got mine for not much at all from another live aboard who wanted to dump it. It was a bay liner 27 foot, looked just like yours, pretty common style. Anyway we sailed it once, mainly got blown around. But thats how you learn...

    Pickers, mushroom season

    Nice. Yeah the Fraser seems like a beautiful area. I'm sure you'll have some pickers in the fall. We'll see if I make it that far. I kick myself for not doing a planting crew when I was aimless after college.

    Pickers, mushroom season

    It's either something to do in your free time, or following the season as it progresses down from Alaska, BC, down to southern or. For the fall varieties. Oh yeah I lived on that boat with two others. Fun while it lasted.

    Pickers, mushroom season

    I did a couple seasons attempting to pick edible mushrooms on the west coast. It was more fun than profitable. It is addicting though, like a treasure hunt. I have been wanting to head out for it again, probably going to this year in the more northern areas of the west coast, might hit op the...

    Hi!

    Right on. Not having a car gets old.

    Hi!

    I'm looking into homesteading too. I think it's hard to live communally unless there is some kind of common endeavor or trade people are working in. I worked on one farm in Northern Cal, with a good owner, but it was just short term. I hope to check out Alaska too someday, mainly to do small...

    To squat or not to. . .squat?

    I'm working on getting a small parcel myself, have done a lot of research into it, and check out a lot of people who homestead and owner build. Yeah check out if they will allow composting, and also, you can probably haul your waste out (or atleast have the ability to) with a portable tank or an...
