I spent years on the road, in fact I simply lived on the road at times, just months and months of traveling, back then we weren’t flooded with illegals and there was always work in restaurants and construction sites, car washes etc., but I really like that I could walk into a restaurant when I needed to and start work that day, and be partying with and dating the waitresses that very evening, which also served as housing of course.
Your adventures sound like a very good topic for a book. I know that I would buy a copy. Our good friend Gary Cowart wrote “Blood on Red Dirt” about his experiences as a Marine in Vietnam. He gets hundreds of dollars a month from the the Kindle edition and it now sells in paperback as well. He came over to our house and showed us how easy it is to self publish. He used Createspace which is a company owned by Amazon but there are a number of other services that do the same thing.
