Well, after all these years, I've recently gone from working for the man to living in a van. Living and working in Nashville just got to be one major stressor, especially with my decade-older roommate whose spare bedroom I was renting was slipping off into some form of dementia and his daughter wants to get him into an assisted living situation.
Now, I'm camping on my acre of land in Apache County, AZ where permanent camping on my own land is allowed and I'm in a "subdivision" where all my neighbors live in RVs or "tiny houses."
I'm living in a 30 year old van with a past history of sitting idle for years and only 110K miles. My camping land is a 1.04 acre parcel with a short (less than 300 yards) overland stretch off the road. Luckily, my van is a one-ton with the accompanying ground clearance.
Still working out details such as a new domicile ASAP. My land came with no address, just an outline on the map. I have to drive an hour each way to pick up mail from my new UPS mailbox. Closest that service is to me. I'm really out in the desert with once- or twice-weekly trips into a small town just under 20 miles away.
