Fuckin' A, dude that's great! I love it! I would 100% pick you up if I saw you hitchhiking somewhere. I've had some decent packs over the years (and some terrible ones too) and I'd always give them away or lose them whenever I was housed up for a bit. About 10 years ago I just started using a...

Same. I made one once out of necessity to carry many beers into the Human Powered Carnival. It was novel and all but I got real sick of totin' that thing around after a while. I was happy to no longer have to when all the beers were finally gone. I'm not trying to discourage you though...

If I were you first I'd get out of Ocala asap and go to Gainesville. There's more people there, more young people there and just more of a chance you'll find a ride and/or someone to travel with. When there I'd check out rideshares on Craigslist or on here. The Civic Media Center is a cool...

Tigerskin - Peak One of my favorite songs and the animation goes so well with it. The cartoon is from Latvia from 1987 and is called "Sēd uz sliekšņa pasaciņa" or "Sits on the threshold of a fairy tale" (according to google translate) if you want to look it up. They used most of the cartoon in...

@Irate Pirate Miami had been long gentrified by the time I was a teenager, and having pretty high expectations from growing up reading SCAM I tried for a lot of my youth to find florida anything but a awful place filled with the worst kind of people. I've been to all the cities you mentioned and...

It was! Not for that reason but I just kinda dug the general lawlessness of the place myself. I didn't hang out with any rich white men though. Mostly broke ass punks of various ethnic backgrounds. I feel like the kind of rich white men they were describing in the video "walk between the...

I'm pretty sure I've written about this subject on STP before but Florida's fucking dope, dude! If you're thinking about going, if you think you might like it, just go because you probably will. Obviously there's shit parts but there's also parts that are beautiful and amazing too. I lived and...

Fuck Robots! Amirite, Cheeks from Gainesville?

Words to live by right there!

@Dragononn Thanks for mentioning Kate Tempest! I checked her out and her shit's wicked good! That Europe Is Lost song is amazing. It reminded me of the Sleaford Mods a bit. They're a sort of stripped down hip hop duo from the UK. People compare their style to punk a lot. Something about them...

Hahaha, nice! That song's awesome.

@ntdxc1878 Here ya go, homie! Nothin but them dope jams! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLIjTx1eo4fVhAIpLX1rI4Wa9_8JukLm_ This is a mix of semi-recent stuff I've been listening to lately at the beginning followed by the older stuff from the 90's/early 2000's. I'll keep adding shit on...

I feel like I a lot of the crustiest of crustlords I've met over the years have been into Hip-Hop to some degree or another (not that everyone here on STP is a crusty, obviously). I've been listening to it for most of my life too (as well as other music that's good). Some of these mumble rap...

Hey sorry for my late response. I was out of town & purposely left my laptop at home (and only did very minimal stuff on my phone). I hear you on the Shepard Fairey stuff. Dude blew the fuck up a number of years ago with the whole Obey thing. Back in the day he had a warehouse space here in...

This is a mural my friend did at one of the art festivals here a couple of years ago

Providence Rhode Island is super into the arts. Shepard Fairey got his start here. I imagine if you do street wheat paste stuff you probably know who he is. There's loads of graffiti around too...which is frowned upon by politicians & art snobs but us regular folk dig it. Also if you make it out...

@Souza1969 I figured you probably could see it. I remember that place being pretty bright & pretty loud at night. That's wicked cool though. It must have been great having the whole island to yourselves. For those that don't know about it or never got the chance to go, Rocky Point was a...

Oh shit, that's awesome. Nobody probably gave a shit if you camped out there back then. Could you see Rocky Point (the park) from there? I still haven't been out there yet (because it's always fucking raining & cold!!) but I will definitely take & post pictures when I do. Thanks for the comment...

Damn, that's scary! I thought that it might be kinda shitty in a kayak or canoe going back & forth from the mainland that's why I was thinking of taking the ferry to Prudence Island and heading out from there. Did you get out and walk around or just stay in the water? Are you down for going...

Hey dude! I'm still all about going in a couple/few weeks. No definite set date or anything yet but I still want to go check shit out and take some kayaks (or canoes or whatever you have/we can get our hands on) out there. When's good for you?

Haha, that's the only time I ever went to Hadad's Lake. I think '08? That whole weekend is a hazy drunk blur but I remember I kept running into people I hadn't seen in a long time there. I vaguely recall seeing Brainworms and I think Shellshag? Then some of the people in Polka Madre got into it...

Gross! I can't stand those creepy little alien bastards (spiders). I developed my "walking with a three foot stick" move REAL fast when I first moved to Florida. I remember too riding my bike down a fairly wide street at night and still getting hit in the face with webs and being all, "WHAT THE...

A tent (and a tarp) is the way to go in Florida, imo. If you don't have a truck or van that is. Once you go about fifteen feet into pretty much any patch of woods nobody's gonna see you/your tent because it's literally a jungle (pro tip: Walk while holding a fairly long stick in front of you so...

@Danielq Never mind, I read your other post: I'm just going to assume this isn't a joke. If I were you, I'd just get some camping gear and go kick it on the beach/in the woods in the keys or something. Other than that you gotta meet people irl and (usually, probably) get to know them a...

I don't live there currently but I lived in Florida for years. North and South. Where are you looking to go?

Hope and Despair? Whoa. That's awesome. I want to go to there. Thanks for posting this Audubon society stuff. I'd heard it was a protected area or something like that but I wasn't sure. I'll still probably go walk around on the beach and check the place out a bit but i'm not going to camp out...

Awesome! Yeah man, keep me posted. I'll send you my number in a direct message that way y'all can just call or text me when you're around here and whatnot. I'm kind of apprehensive about camping there since it's some kind of protected wildlife area or whatever but if we can't camp on Prudence...

Oh hell the fuck yeah! That'd be awesome! I already started making plans with my friend to go and I say the more the merrier. Anyone else in the area who also wants to join us come on down! We haven't picked a set day or anything yet. She said she'd been to Prudence Island before but it was a...

@rusty That's cool you've been there/around there before. I looked up Prudence Island & watched a few videos on YT and I was thinking the same thing too. You can take a ferry from Portsmouth apparently so I was just going to load up a truck with some kayaks & people, get on the ferry and just...

@cantcureherpes I think that's the Warwick lighthouse (at Warwick point) they mentioned going around to get to the island. I'm pretty sure the only picture of the actual island is the one with the kayak.

Oh shit that's cool! I live in the area & I've heard of this island but didn't know it was deserted...which is weird because there's another island just east of there called Hog Island that looks to be about the same size but it has a bunch of people living on it. I'll have to check this place...
