Packing up my car and hitting New Orleans soon. Looking to meet up, find a building, and start squatting.
30% of New Orleans is still vacant after Katrina, with a disproportionate amount of "condemned" buildings, making it the perfect place to squat. Just in time for Mardi Gras too :)
If you're in the area and want to form such an alliance, let's become friends.

squats in nola usually either get blown the fuck up and raided, or just end up getting raided. be careful if you are even somewhat serious about going through with this. personally nola scares the hell out of me.

i'm currently in baton rouge, should be back down there within the next week. Just gotta get rid of everything that won't fit in my car.
NOLA isn't as scary as the media portrays it to be. You just gotta have situational awareness and power in numbers.

I'm thinking of hitting up Clearwater, FL. The snowbirds will be leaving and the spring break kids will be coming. Makes for some good people watching. Plus all the hobos there were really nice (at least when I lived there).

When I can get on the road depends on how soon I can get rid of all my crap. Have it all on CraigsList and not too many bites yet. Cause apparently all these LSU students don't need cheap college kid furniture lol.
Once that's done, I'll be off on my journey of the great outdoors.
