    how bad of an idea would a cadillac hearse be?

    I reckon it can be done. But prior posters are right, Cadillacs are an expensive repair. Also, I'll be the first to point out the obvious; the thing is probably haunted. Be wary of that.

    slab city of the east if it was even were a thing.

    Well, it would certainly be in a wooded area, as there are no deserts this side of the nation. The above comments are correct. New York has large swathes of predominantly undisturbed and undeveloped land, mostly on state or national park grounds. Maine is much the same, but the climate in itself...

    Your favorite books?

    I'm a huge fan of anything by Vonnegut or Irvine Welsh, but Steinbeck's East of Eden is probably my favorite book of all time.

    Is there anywhere wild left in america?

    It's worth keeping in mind that, in a country such as this, places that remain largely undeveloped probably remain that way for reason, whether it be inhospitable environments or a significant lack of resources necessary to sustain life. Whatever your goal, and wherever your venture, be sure to...

    Is there anywhere wild left in america?

    I'd argue that much of the flyover states and a large portion of the midwest contain areas that are largely undeveloped. Places like Utah, Montana, Wyoming, Arkansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas, and even Nevada contain ample space sparsely populated and far from urban congestion. Granted, this is...

    How to deal with boyfriend drinking too much and me being homeless and leaving him?

    If you can't convince him to sober up then things are only going to get worse. With a lot of problem drinkers it's like black and white. They're great people until they get drunk and then they're someone else entirely. You need to consider your own personal safety and well-being here. It might...

    Pack Capacity Inquiry

    The point has come at the start of my journey to really start acquiring some fucking gear, and soon. This way I can conduct a few trial runs before hitting the big wide open for good. I've settled on an internal frame pack of some sort, probably on the Osprey line, to look more like a through...

    Do I even need a cooking stove?

    This was the route I was thinking of going. Wouldn't a camp Stove create just as much light?

    Do I even need a cooking stove?

    This is honestly what i'm leaning on doing. It's just so simple and can be recreated in the event of any catastrophic equipment failures.

    Do I even need a cooking stove?

    So, I been thinking about my list for my upcoming escapades. Something about a cooking stove seems a little unnecessary. I can eat lots of stuff cold outta cans, and even still, with a proper mess kit, I could just cook over a fire. I plan on being out there for a long time. A year, at least...

    Thanks so much for the encouragement! The more I read the more questions I have, but i'm determined to figure it all out. Luckily, as long as I stick to my financial goals, I'll have a little less than 8 months to do it! I just ate my first can of Vienna Sausages to see what they were all about...
