treehouse squat in bc anyone?

[ayron]

rope swings , zip lines, bordwalks, all of it! fuck this is really gonna be fucking rad.

so in a month here im gonna scope out texada, round then the weather should be over it's self and warm up a bit. i hope theres enough sturdy trees around there for a solid community

is anyone else gonna be around the coast round the end of januaray and want to help comb the island with me?

also somthing else to think about, getting wood and other resources to the squat, any ideas?

 

[ayron]

Pools land! Yea that was it. It's too bad, I heard the guy ended up getting a lot of fines and had to 'close down' a lot of what he was doing. A little more organization and a few less acid induced 60's hippies living in busses and we might be able to make something of this plan. Don't forget rope swings! Ayron, is your picture taken in Tofino? I think I recognize that beach...

yeah dude its long beach! me and a friend hitched there from a guy not even going there! he ended up buyin us like a 6 pack and a 12 case too, i think the rope swings will really really make this that much more wicked too, no way can we forget em

 

[ayron]

ok so in a 2 weeks im gonna first scout out hornby island ( i have a few freinds there already who would be able and willing to help out) and if i cant find anything suitiable, im gonna head to texada. to be honest im much more inclined to set up on honrby. at MOST they have 2 cops posted on weekends, and thats a huge plus.

is anyone around wanting to meet up around the first n seccond week of feb?...or when ever 2 weeks is ? haha

 

[Ithyphallic]

I'm up on a farm until late spring/early summer so I won't be around to help out for a while, but keep updating in this thread on how the search goes dude! I'll have tons of ways to make sustainable, cheap greenhouses and farming ventures if we so desire by the time I'm done. Fuckin stoked dude!

 

[tree hopper]

im so fucken down to help if i make it out. n' i love tree houses.
....livin' out fucken loud is wat its all-a-fucken-bout :dablackpearl:

 

[Onemanbandit]

Well we know we'd have a huge amount of local support, hornby would be pretty ideal but adding ferry costs and everything might put some people off. I'm down, I know we could do it. Steal some chainsaws and shit, turn some soil, plant some crops, the first season is the most important because there's at least a margin of success it will attract a lot more people really fast. I'm down and you know we both know dozens of people who would be. Hornby is close enough to Comox valley that it'd be wicked for spange and dummpstering and "salvage" of useful materials from wasteful peoples garages and whatnot.

 

[Onemanbandit]

I mean for fucks sakes, oprah declared it one of the best places in north america to invest in.

 

[Ithyphallic]

So how's the search? I'm off the farm and eager for an adventure!

Wheels are in motion my friend. Anyone who wants information either message me or ayron. I took off with this idea a couple days ago and started talking to people, spent about 60 hours awake and played think tank, too excited to sleep. RIGHT NOW, we`ve got Ayron, a girl name Cuppy who knows how to build cob, and tend to goats, milk them and make cheese, my friend sean who is a friend of mine I lived outside with all last summer and played music with, and two of my other friends getting ready to go to the spot to plant the crop before we lose anymore of the planting window, the spot has now been decided on as CORTES ISLAND. I will have a map available soon and HOPEFULLY have a boat ready to use soon for access from campbell river to the exact location to avoid ferry fares and hiking, but any money would be very very helpful. I have kids in campbell river organizing tools that can be donated to the cause, and hopefully ayron will be meeting up with the other members of the crew so far VERY soon to go there. ANYONE INTERESTED PLEASE CONTACT ME OR AYRON. I am leaving toronto tomorrow morning to hitchike back to BC I`ll be there asap boys. Let`s doooooo this My name is Jesse by the way, facebook jess see stew wart
