Ok! Been awhile I know. Things are looking better for me though I'm about to make what some may concider a bad move. Things have gotten a tad bit weird for me in my house. My roomies want me to take over the lease which wasn't a problem as my roomie I be taking it from was irresponsible with the rent & bill money. But then the roomies went on this vengeful campaign of wanting me to evict him. I can't. Taking the lease away is punishment enough to me & get our bills & rent back on track but evicting him serves no purpose other than to be vindictive to him & I won't support it. There are other issues in the house that I can't talk about here but also have me very piss. When I moved to Portland a year ago my goal was to get a big school bus & convert it & sell my land in Calif. & buy some up here & live on it in the bus while I start building my house/homestead. I got caught up living in the city instead & the house drama just snapped me out of it. So I'm moving out at the end of the month & going down to Calif to my home town for Yule & liquidate some of my antiques I inherited & use the money to buy me a nice diesel school bus in Oregon City at Triggs Bus ( www.triggbussales.com ). Before I come back up, put my Calif land up on the market & come back up to Portland & go back to work. The money I save not paying rent will go into converting my bus. Have plenty of friends who will let me park my bus on their property. Have a good job where I can come & go and they always put me back to work. So I see it as a good move. I've also been living on alot of junk food as of late & will drop meat out of my diet for awhile to clean out my system & get healthy again. Start watching for a good piece of property here. Land is cheaper in Oregon than in Calif. So I'm hoping I can sell my 10 acres in Calif & turn that over to 15 to 20 acres up here. Will see. Been working on my website which will have a section on my bus project so people can monitor my progress. Also some of you may not know I moderate a very large Tribe here called Bus Village. If you are interested in old Hippy style conversion Buses come check it out at busvillage.tribe.net
I'll try to keep you all up to date.

PS.
Oh I'm still very much part of PMCP so keep your ears out for that as well.
