pretty much says it all. i love the rain. it cannot rain enough in my opinion. i can't stand the heat with humidity here in Florida. not sure i can make it to OR or WA, but if i did, it would be nice to have some suggestions on where to land.

awesome. thanks for the heads up!

i think that gathering is done and gone: http://flrainbow.org/

for some reason i thought 'i shoulda been aborted' would be new lyrics attached to the music from 'i wanna be sedated'.

when you say chilly, do you mean its been pretty cold, or you have had the chills?

i was reading up on rocket mass heaters. they are pretty straightforward to build and look pretty cheap. they can be a bit labor intensive, building the 'mass' part, but they are apparently incredibly efficient. 5x that of regular woodstoves. they do this by actually getting hot enough to burn...

well, as far as welding goes you can get a cheap tiny welding set from home depot/ lowe's for a hundred bucks here. the issue is that's nowhere near enough fuel to get you through a job like this. getting a real welding set and then ordering the oxy/acy tanks including deposits will run you...

the biggest problem with most porn is that its not erotic. at all. in fact my first thought upon seeing most porn is this: i don't need an anatomy lesson. i know what your junk looks like and i know where things go. it is very difficult to find real erotica.

finally, success!

what are the summers like?

no. but it sounds delightful, i hope you have an enjoyable trip.

if you've got someone who has tools you can also punch a hole through the bottom of each one and string it up that way.

i think a cheap woodstove of some kind might be your best bet for a quick solution. the most difficult part is feeding the smoke stack out the window or a wall. but even then its quite feasible and quickly done.

i read once about a french atheist who still practiced the more ritual oriented forms of christianity (maybe he was catholic). but he was a philosophical materialist atheist. so for him there was no energy, karma, etc. just atoms and molecules. he just felt it gave his life a seasonal rhythm and...

welcome to the boards. there's a lot of people with good recommendations in the Gear section of the forums.

i'm a fourth generation floridian and i'm totally with you on that. florida has got to be one of the most godforsaken places on the planet.

and here's your how-to for bones:

holyshit. that is some fucking awesome plays.

ya, i just don't think chihuahua's have the ability to stfu. its not their fault, just the way they're built, but still, can't imagine them as the best traveling companions. id just find a small mutt at the pound who's on death-row. if nothing else you'll have given'em a reprieve for a short...

southern music like? NOLA jazz? country? bluegrass? old timey?

ha! grits is about as southern as it gets ;)

maryland is a lot more 'southern' than most folks realize. they were going to secede from the union during the civil war, but Lincoln arrested their entire state legislature and threw them in jail so they couldn't vote on it.

Fest is also giving out a free music sampler download from their site as well: http://fest11.bandcamp.com/ there's a link at the bottom of the page to actually download.

they are paid to keep them mentally unstable. the mentally stable, while certainly willing to do their duty, aren't usually the ones gungho for war at a moment's notice, like the state needs them to be.

it is pretty damn cool, but ya, i think its usefulness would be limited to rubber tramping, not train hopping. i'd be afraid of breaking it jumping on and off.

buy some beef ribs, bbq 'em, eat'em, then play dem bonez!

thanks for the heads up.

@wildwerden: ive googled and such, but ive had trouble finding out where future gatherings are going to be held. do you happen to have any info/links related to that?

that's a common complaint i've heard from wwoofer's. the boss-man begins to treat everyone like they were 19th century field hands and not volunteers on an exchange program.

byronmc you are a constant source of good info.

i think 'marketing' is the eternal question of making money on the internet. there's so many damn voices, getting yours through takes a lot. guess you could try using youtube videos of yourselves linking to your kickstarter page and getting your friends to facebook you. encourage them to share...

here's a book i stumbled on while surfing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1430302704/

you mention the declarations made in earlier issues about orgs such as FNB being declared dead. you chalk this up to despair, but i think its a bit more insidious. i have found far too many people with radical political views thriving off the potential of the 'end times', whatever that may be...

the plants on top of the van thing looks cool, but would kill your plants via transpiration: the wind whipping around those leaves would suck them dry. other than that it looks cool.

too bad it doesn't exist yet for purchase :(

nice tip! thanks.

good to see you got some internet access out there. folks like to blow that off as pure entertainment, but really its an incredibly robust, cheap (relatively), fast means of communication. im sure it will only help as you progress with projects and begin to find yourself with visitors. thanks...

fuckin' love me some smexy tree watching.

thanks for the tips folks. hadn't thought about insulating the car or how that might be done. guess i'll look into that.

thanks, that was a good link. didnt realize carpet padding could be used for that. are there any other things that could be added if you're rubber tramping? i dont have the vehicle yet. so im not sure whether it'll be big enough to sleep in or not. aside from that i spose with a vehicle you...

im just in the wishing stage, but im looking at heading north this Fall/Winter. crazy i know. but after i hit up the occupy folks in nyc, any suggestions on my trek through VT, CT, ME, maybe even NH and Quebec?

wish we were more 'entitled' here.

would love to hear more. and if anyone has links to any other similar projects on the east coast, i'd love to hear about it.

i get along well with antisocial people. wait...

well ya, until you posted those canada pics. now i just wana goto canada ;)

ya looks like this thread has been lonely for a while. would love to hear some stories and see some pics myself. also, someone made mention of people living out of wagons and such in france and spain. i'll google it, but would love to learn some more about it from folks who know.

now that is some informative and useful shit.

wow. great scenery...what does it take to become a canadian citizen again? ;) that harpist in quebec city adds a whole new meaning to busking.
