I have been homeless, albeit voluntarily. I spent most of '71 and a portion of '72 "finding" myself. Started off with an old bread truck, I found I could not support both a vehicle and myself so I sold it for $80.00.
I rode my thumb after that.
I had a sleeping bag, and 3 or 4 tin cans with a large restaurant size serving as a stove. I had a piece of tarp for a shelter. I have slept under bridges and under the giant trees of the North West.
I know that this was a cartoon in jest, but camping is not at all like being homeless.
It sure was a kinder, gentler camping experience back then, wasn't it? Your post reminded me of the bread truck and step vans I used to own. There's a good story about 5 young friends, a monkey, and camping in Big Sur but I'll save that for another day.
