    If I was around for it I'd likely be the most successful bidder. I love stuff , I think I'm maximalistic.
    I need two barns for all my stuff. I get it honest though. My parents never throw anything away.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

    I've been doing this since about mid October. I miss some of my shit. I mean it's fun and all, except for this damn rain, it's like a hippie family of five camping trip.

    Actually the only thing I miss is room. I mean when we talk about minimalism what are we talking about doing away with? I'm not a trinket collector. But I like my guns, fishing gear, boats, some tools, and clothes, basically that's all I have, well money. I don't see myself wanting to paddle anything, and everything else I use a fair amount.

    Minimalism isn't about not having stuff, it is simply only having stuff that brings consistent value. Basically, if you don't use it and it doesn't serve a purpose get rid of it, and limit the consumption of new products until the one that it will replace has outlived its ability.

    I dejunked this summer before moving to Utah, it was an awesome feeling.


    .....and then I had to buy new gear, spotting scope, a layout boat, 2 mountain bikes, a heavier fly rod, skis and boots. It's a damn money pit state.
