Hey everyone, will be packing up and moving to a legal state this summer soon as i finish up my next grow which starts end of this month. Not sure where I'm goin, northern Calif. is first choice but I'm not rich, i figure 600 mo rent is around my limit, can do that easily. But I dont really care where I go as long as I can grow my medicine legally. Would like to find a like- minded travel companion. I'm an old stoner from 70's, though just recently returned to tokin bout 2 yrs ago when i threw out all my scrips and replaced with mmj. Aint into partyin, rock & roll stuff no more. Just an old laid back hippie interested in gardening, nature, medinical herbs, sustainable living, permaculture, etc. Wanting to learn all i can and grow my medicine. You can be young or old, male or female, I get along with most everyone. Got an old pick-up, may purchase a camper, all still up in the air. Anyone interested keep in touch or check this site come summertime. Will def have good herb to travel with. Only done 2 grows so far so i got lots to yet learn, but last grow i did 5 plants 12 -14 wks flwr and got almost 10 oz. As ya'll can see i tend to ramble on, so bear with me. Will post pics of last grow if i remember how. Peace and Love to All.
To be totally honest, I've about given up headin west for now mainly cause the more i think bout it i dont wanna be somewhere with only a few thou in my pocket and homeless. How do i find a place that i can set up my grow in. Unless i cut my hair and shave i look like what a pothead should look like . So unless something happens i am now working on buying a little trailer on property. Would much rather invest a few thou on settin up a nice grow room instead of buyin property in Fl. where i worry every day bout gettin busted. Only way i can grow is in secret, so i have no friends, no company, etc., which sucks, dont wanna live the rest of my life in secret, hiding from everyone. Ya know where i could find a little shack somewhere for 30-40K, prolly not anywhere in Calif, dont know about other places. So all still up in the air, meetin with mort. broker this wk. to discuss a loan, we'll see what happens, so you lookin to travel, or already there, maybe lookin for good honest drug & alcohol free(except mj) partner? Peace, Billy
Still wanting to head out of here. After lotsa thought, decided to not buy property in Fl. Gonna tough it out until i can head west. Something or someone will happen. Peace
Billy, when I read your posts, I have to say, I really felt some of what you're going through in my own life. I am in FL -- Citrus County -- and I am planning on leaving this state in just a few weeks time or as soon as I can. I have often dreamed living in Oregon or Cali or someplace where I could just do my little computer job, grow and smoke my own medicine, garden/farm a bit, and just live in peace with nature with all those around me. It sure doesn't feel like asking too much, but it has been just so hard for me to find down here. Everyone keeps telling me that Oregon is that kind of place so I have high hopes that I will find what I'm looking for there. Many have suggested Oregon as you can register and grow for yourself there. I'm just so tired of the good old boys network down here, all the geriatric nosy neighbors around me, the unbearable weather, and for the last 3 years I have had a genuine lack of kindred spirits around me and I just feel empty inside and a bit lonely too. I only grow for myself and so I have to live in hiding, too. I've got lots of neighbors around me that do crack and meth, but they just aren't my kind of people so I don't hang with them. And the few nice folks I have met are too churchy and consider my medicine as no different than crack or meth, and that at 44 I should give up the "partying." Who parties? I have a toke or two in the morn and am usually pain free for most of the day and still plenty coherent enough to work. Smoking has sure beaten the dozen or so pills that I was taking years ago. These people just don't get it. They have no idea how much MJ has helped me and so as a result, I feel like I have to live this secret life and like I have to hide all the time. I came to FL in '06 to take care of family and he is gone now and so there is nothing holding me here anymore. I have gotten rid of most everything I own and I intend to travel light, a small suitcase or two and my laptop and make my way across country. You still looking for a traveling companion or have you decided to stay in FL?
My husband and i are trying to get to colorado. we are headed to a commune west of lyons and are needing to get out of texas. just wondering if you were still going? we are minimalist and ready to go out to the woods and build our debris teepee for the winter emma and davey
If I had money, and didn't want to leave my parents at this moment I would so be out of Florida. Damn I fucking hate it here. Don't like the people all that much. Don't like the laws. Don't like the pigs. Ugh. For the longest time I've just wanted to hop on a train, and go somewhere else.
I'm from NY & plan on saving about $10,000 the next 5 years for a motor-home down payment, getting a bachelors degree, and taking off to live on some acres in Oregon. It seems like the easiest way to me. It will help save money in Oregon until I complete my degree at the University in Eugene. Once I find a job I will get a mortgage to build a new multifamily home on the land. Some of my family members and friends will be joining me once everything is settled. We will be farming and raising lots of dogs and farm animals. And yes, one of my many reasons for wanting to go to Oregon is to be able to get the medicine I need.

The laws in Michigan are pretty comfortable, too. Just saying. And property in Detroit and the majority of Michigan, really, is cheap.
MI is really cheap yes. but the winter sucks. i personally thought it'd be cool to go to nor-cal for the summer, then go back to fl for the winter. fl is my home now and i like it.
Hey Guys (and Gals), I'm in Miami, and wanting to go back to California. I know cheap weekly places to live in down town San Diego till we can get on our feet, I have my own resources (though not much), and am the easiest travel companion on Earth (kind, courteous, responsible, enlightened, peaceful, etc..) If anyone wants to share a ride with me to California, I'd be happy to hear from you here, or at my email address, which is: erikdufresne1@gmail.com Peace.
