Ms Yes, after 6 years as a spectical, kitchen and home, has been parked. She continues to feed and keep hippies warm in her resting place.
Thank you so much to the beautiful people who heard our need for a new bus. The universe has come through for us with not one, but two new buses.
Photos coming soon of Tiny and Big Mamma, our beautiful new buses!
Love!
We’re in washington, getting ready for nationals with a leaky headgasket.
As of now, the water is only leaking out of the block, rather then into the fuel or oil, so she still drives fine, but we lose all the water out of radiator in 40 miles or so. Anyone know anyone in washington who might be able to help us out?
We’re still brainstorming on how to deal with this, and are open to any love, suggestions and assistance.
Lovin you, see you at nationals.
We tried to go help in alabama, and were chased off everywhere we tried to go. The housing manager of one government housing project told us that “these people are poor, they’ll take anything you give them, they don’t need you’re help”. (so…help the rich people? because…they need it?) the police told us that we couldn’t volunteer without wristbands. And we couldn’t get wristbands that day, because…it was raining. Apparently people don’t need to eat in the rain?
We had all the supplies to feed thousands of meals, and were chased off so many times that alot of the food we brought in spoiled before we could feed it to anyone.
We tried plugging in thru the official channels in one town, and were treated like criminals. We came up and offered our help, and the first people who would talk to us were police officers who demanded IDs, and told us they had it under control and didn’t need any help from us.
We did find some wonderful people in Cullman who let us park on their lawn, and we fed for a day before their landlord came and kicked us out. We had a swarm of children all day helping us out and making juggling balls and drawing on the bus. Gave away chinese food, alfredo, and fruit smoothies all day. The neighborhood wasn’t badly damaged, but they’d been living without power for almost a week and were grateful for some entertainment and hot food. It was really great to see a neighborhood of people out of their houses, TVs off, having fun with their neighbors.
We are now in Missouri, headed west.
Also,-the paypal button finally works! it’s in the “contact/donate” link you see at the top of the page
The bus has been to three national forests since anyone last did anything to this site. We’re now showering up at some familys house, and then we’ll be heading west.
I’m really awful about updating websites. Is there anyone else out there who wants to contribute to this website? So many of you do awesome things, I’d love to make better use of this website thing! Post pictures songs words etc?
If you’ve commented recently, and your comment hasn’t showed up, it’s because I can’t figure out how to make comments just show up, and some of the comments don’t have the little checkbox to aprove them. I’ll do some research and try to fix this. And a bunch of other things.
Christmas was lovely, Christmas dinner dinner served 50ish people. Just about everyone took off in the day or two after christmas, so we took off.
We’re currently in Ventura, california. Anyone know of a hotsprings or beach we could park a bus at anywhere near here for new years?
Florida bound soon.
Love!
2 days after arriving at a beautiful site and starting to build a kitchen, we’ve moved to a brand new site, due to bad weather, bad roads, etc.
My birthday is the 20th, so hurry up!
You will drive thru a vehicular recreation site, and they’ll want to take money. Tell them you’re driving thru to the national forest. They already know about us camping back there.

I’m trying to figure out how to get paypal working. I don’t know how yet. I really hate the internet these days. If anyone else has interesting things they’d like to be posting about on this website, please get in contact and start doing it!
In the mean time, here are directions as best I have, to the washington gathering. I haven’t been there yet, so I apoligize if they are misleading.
From Spokane:
Take the exit for highway 2 north (Division St Exit), drive 30ish miles.
Take a left onto 211, drive about 15 miles.
Take a left onto flowery trail road (which google thinks will be marked McKenzie, Beeman, or 20. The humans who are there tell me it’s flowery trail. perhaps both? Keep an eye out for rock stacks and signs of hippie traffic) Follow for 8-10 miles, take a left on Bartlett and go 3.6 miles.
Welcome home!
