Pack up the Wagon

 As the heat builds the need to move north into the mountains increases. Looking around while walking back from the executive suite Kadizzle realized all the stuff that has to be moved.  Trying to stay light makes being a nomad hard. That brings us to the book Nomad. We watched the movie in Florida.  Kadizzle found it boring. Maybe it was boring because we live among the Nomads. Van Nomads are just a subset of the overall group trying to live on the road. A lot of people living the traveling life are not poor.  Many people are scraping by on Social Security. Dry camping is the common term for people not hooked up to anything. That means solar for electricity, find a place to dump sewage, and find some water.  All. these things can be a challenge. Our society needs and overhaul.  People should have a basic means to survive.  When Jeff Bezos of Amazon makes and additional 64 billion during the pandemic it is time to wake. up and make him pay people rather than enslave them.  Then on the very bottom are the bum walkers. These are the people you see walking down the highway pushing a cart or on a beat up bicycle with a dog. The bum walkers are truly destitute.  Who knows where they sleep. A lot of the marginal people are there because of poor planning. Then there are the people from busted marriages, and dead spouses.  The plan falls apart when someone dies.
