They only thing keeping people busy on the streets here in Florida is the search for more dope

Do they make you have permits? What about property taxes. This is my next move in life and it’s always good to get more knowledge from someone with experience. It’s nice to see comments like yours and know people are living free.

@@Mason-eu2so I tend to a gal's ranch ( about 140 acres) in exchange I live on the wooded part that the cattle don't much care to go. I get my water from the well house and tote it to my tank using the ATV that's mine to use around here. I have a couple outbuildings for storage. So my little spot doesn't get too cluttered. I use a wood stove in the winter, but also have a little buddy heater hooked to a 20lb tank if need be (or I'm just lazy). My solar setup is 10 100 watt panels with three 100amp hour lithium ion batteries. I keep my lighting on 12 volts and really only use the 110 to run the microwave or power tools. I hope this gives you some ideas.🤠

I'm living in my camper. Lucky to have it even though it's old it is home

Four 410w 49v panels can barely keep up with my small AC.

that doggie is one happy dog that's for sure

Yes, I am very happy out here. Thank you.

i was thinking the very same thing, LOL

Yes he is 😅

so true

But in specific cases, people need control, a help would do them no good in the long run

@@sauravbasu8805 they have to control themselves is the problem. We can lead a horse to water...

I say that all the time thank you for reminding people of that

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not touched by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadow will spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crown less again shall be king.

@@mikeries8549 You know your Tolkien.

Amen

Wandering is fun and adventurous

i wouldn't trust him

Especially in Florida. Wish more was like this old gizzard.

Paulbumyun 3663 Trust is something you probably don’t know anything about I don’t ask anyone to trust me I would rather not have to prove anything to you or anybody else I believe in not doing anything with malicious intent If you live by that you will get along very well in life

@@PaulMcelveenjr. so you don't trust yourself

Sadly most are avoided like the plague! And if you give them a chance you will travel to places no book or movie could ever take you. Gods Children!

Wonderful

And yet if you seen him on the street you would walk right by him

​@@Hankjones1...yeah but that's because some people don't know who is a major alcoholic or on big drugs. He isn't though.

Stay west of the muddy anything east of there is a concrete jungle

If you were riding in the late 80s early 90s I probably know you I practically lived on the trains during that time period I knew most everyone that rode up there in the Pacific Northwest.that was mostly where I was riding trains There wasn’t very many of us regulars.

I felt like a hobo in the Navy traveling to 16 countries over 12 years. I never rode a train but if I do I'll go first class inside the train. I'm 65 and too broke down to tough it. And besides that, they have killers and thieves hiding among people like our friend here.

@@Christopher-iq9yj thank you for your service in the navy. I stopped riding trains in my late 40s. And yes even then you had to be careful about other riders. Mostly because of drunken people or the gang's of Mexicans. Anyway you have a great weekend.

@@richardhanley3411 thanks you too !

Agreed

The wheel wells where they were 'riding', were on trailers secured to a flatbed car on the train. The trailers where they hid, were not in-motion.'

​@larryslemp9698 that's the first train car I ever rode. They're called piggybacks

Thankyou

Almost worth saving entire planet for that 1 ..fellow

He seems decent enough but what we need are more people actually paying taxes and less people on the taxpayers teat.

@@davebryant8050 yeah, if everyone thought like him there wouldn’t be much getting done.

This interview was dope

He should title his book, "Inside My 6th Foot Fence"

I should write a book about my life, but ppl wouldn't believe me. I need to go back to humboldt county and me free climbing 200 ft redwoods it's a culture out there

You Are So Right TY

​@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS -yes in the best sense

Great work, Jose. God bless you.

Great interview. This man's story needs a ghost writer. I'll bet his life is a book worth reading.

Great interview, Jose!

I've already been arrested twice since Dasantes signed the new law in making being homeless illegal. First time they gave me 7 days in jail secont time i got 30 days in jail and the judge said the third time I'll be classified as a three time looser and get 20 years in prison

@@charlesyates6687 So so sorry you are being treated so poorly. You spoke of a person in the video who sounds like someone my son. Is his name Logan? I am trying to help him and I'm moving down there. Are you in the Tampa area?

True that

True & he isn't left alone for 8 hours

@@familylifetoo9541 yes, my widget is very happy. She goes everywhere with me even to the doctors she is service dog.

i miss my dog GREASE 10lbs

Lol

He really does huh? I thank God for the Angels he assigns us for protection.

@@clark2491 Amen!

So true about the people who offer help in all reality you are a cash cow to them and nothing more.

Me too

Thank you I never thought of myself as well spoken

​@PaulMcelveenjr. Hello! Are you actually the gentleman who is being interviewed? If so, I can assure you I am not the only one who would be happy and honored to come alongside you and watch any videos filled with your thoughts, life stories, and adventures. Hope to hear from you! Take care of you, sir. 🤗🙏

Yes, that is me Christine 777

@PaulMcelveenjr. Woot! 😲 Very nice, sir! Your interview was enjoyable and really refreshing. It's nice to see that normal, honest people are still around our nation! Your adventurous stories were great, like reading a book. Take care of yourself, and keep looking out for other people whenever you feel led. It made me smile! ☺️

Thanks to all you well spoken yankeezz he is homeless thankz for your service

Nothing wrong with that at all. I would love go go homestead but I’m to old to start now. I have been prepping since 09/11/01. I have alotnof goods stored. Be a mofo to move for me. I would love to do it. Still committed to wife and 2 kids tho

@@Wesmancan they're coming to get you!!

@@someotherdude SPOKEN like a true clueless liberal

@@someotherdude that’s what I’m afraid of one of these days it will happen again

Yes sir

💯💯💯💯

Wow, they sound like outstanding men and citizens, what the heck happened to them over time?

My granny would feed the hobos . And they would do odd jobs for her . Some of the hobos made a few stops back to get her food. She was a great cook

​@@joniayling3245luvly

​​@@bobabooey4537the world overdeveloped,you can't just trust anyone and nowadays there's too much control on such ways they'd travel before by mounting a train 🚂 and so a modern day one would need to find unsuspicious mediums

​@@joniayling3245I've heard of the hobo symbols written on signs that signaled to those who know that they have a safe and friendly place to stop by. My grandma lived through the Depression and I know she fed a few people in her day.

That’s what they wanted and now it’s killing them. As for me, all I want is a place in the mountains where there’s a stream or lake near by to go trout fishing and I would be a happy camper.

I know what you mean. I would be all over the place if I didn’t need doctors all the time but I have doctors I have to go to. I am elderly now, and not in the greatest of health so I have to pretty much stick around

I'm not far behind you. Children and grand children messed things up .... everything was just a-okay when our generation was calling the shots? My ass! They just took what we got rolling and moved it along.

Thanks

Yes thats why he is so stable in mind

Yes, I do like people I love everyone it’s just that you can trust no one anymore. Thank you.

Did you ever go to “Hobo Days” in Britt, Iowa?

Thank you, Paul Viggle I do see the comments and thank you very much

He said he is now homeless, got his tent & comforts in the woods.

Remember the bible says how one gets into Christ Ga 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. or Romans 6:3-6 Water baptism is the one baptism commanded Acts 10:47-48

He doesn’t see it as horrible.

@@sandrajohnson7702 True, but I live in Florida. The weather conditions are what I'm mainly referring to. I can't imagine how anyone would enjoy living outside here, year round. And then of course, the bugs and the unstable people he has to deal with. Good on him if he can avoid and stay safe from them.

He doesn't see it that way at all! He wouldn't have it any other way. Those piercing blue all-knowing eyes.... striking.

I’m still living it it’s not over yet

The man is living life to the fullest.

Come to Florida and find out if its enough rents start at 2590 for a 1/1

​@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGSwhy would he do that? Unlike you, he's smart. 🤓

VA Healthcare is awesome in my area...love it.

@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGSI rent an apartment in Sarasota for 1150; Not discrediting your statement however. It can be very expensive to live in FL, but if you look you can find decent housing for a “quasi-affordable” price you can usually find it

In NC mine is paid for

I am not homeless my house just has soft walls. Ha. Ha. Ha.

Roll Tide! 🐘🌊

As an Alabama fan I couldn't scroll past this comment without replying with a roll tide. 😂

Lol hypocrites

Thank you my dogs name is widget

Love all, and do nothing with malicious intent, and you will go far on this earth

Wow you live in one of the most beautiful places on earth

Welcome Hobo.

Blake sounds like if u try better move to NC OR TN - FL may arreat u

@Gods-Elect I've been wanting to get out of here for over a decade now but I have nowhere to go and no one to help me get my footing anywhere else. I'm too poor to just up and move anywhere I want on my own. I have a full time job with benefits and my own car. But once my mom dies, I'm fucked.

Born, r raised, Retired Miami, we had to sell and go to NC Florida, away from People

I am in Olympia too.

Im in ohio i had a uncle move out there and he was homeless on the streets of the capital for years. Not on drugs or a drunk but was very dif than othere. But he was so smart! He had like 5 dif degrees im collage could of had a good job but did not. He was happy on the streets. Was not until the last close to a year of his life before he got a apartment. One day we got no more phone calls from him called the ppl who he rented from they found him dead when he was trying to get in the shower. Sorry so long but there is good ppl who chose to live on the street and free.

I read the reviews and you are very welcome Frederick

it takes a special talent that takes time to aquire

Listen to some but not other's. Hypocrisy in the Good ol U S A

KFC!

Does anyone know why Shoestring drowned, I'm sure he knew how to swim?

I sure do miss ole Shoestring. This video made me think about Mark.

​@@dbcooper692 I personally believe foul play may be involved. I have no proof - just a feeling I keep having.

I miss Hobo Shoestring

Thank you I have most everything I need except peace

He wouldn't accept it.

@@PaulMcelveenjr. Why u say except peace?

I have a lot of trouble with thieves

A million dollars might well ruin him. Forget talking about giving him a million and share with him the basics that you can live without.

Stay Blessed

I have a friend thats 69 years old now and not had a home in over 30 years. No drugs not a drunk just a real good guy loves life and God. He is very smart to.

Very well done!

Are u happy ? That is all that counts just stay away from the drugs & drinks

Very happy

Why..so.many.periods.?

Your trippin

Thank you

Iwonder if he mind I move !!!..30or 40ft over from him

@@deborahellzey4317 I would really have to know you before I let you move near me. I don’t trust everyone anymore are used to trust everyone until they prove differently but everyone has malicious intent, and it proves to be very hazardous. So now I trust no one until they prove differently. Sometimes I can just tell instantly, but it doesn’t take me long. I’m good at reading people.

Thank you wrecker girl I have often thought of writing a book but I just don’t know how to begin or anything about it actually

This one was a hit

Thank you I have shown few people with a lot of things about living out here they were lost when I met them didn’t know what they were going to do and I showed them the way and help them out

I have actually showed a few people away. I have one person now that I am helping.

theres an informality required to the particular setting.
