Paul has made a awesome little home out of his bread truck. I encourage everyone to go check out his channel. He is a great guy and his live streams are always a ton of fun to go and hangout and chat. Those of us that are fans of his are known as the BreadRolls and we are always looking for more to join the gang. All are welcome!!

Haven't seen one of your videos in forever. The changes are amazing in both the bread truck and in you! The van looks fantastic but compared to you they are nothing. You look so much more relaxed and comfortable in your skin if you will. It's awe inspiring. It's convinced both myself and my wife to retire, build a home on wheels and hit the road. Thank you for taking us on your journey. We are in fact in your debt. We retire in May, will be starting our build at that time and look forward to running into you on the road. We owe you dinner and drinks and hope you will take us up on the offer when we meet.

I've said time and time again no more dogs no more but I'm weakening and maybe it's not a bad idea for you also thank you brother for sharing your lifestyle I'll be looking in constantly I can't wait to meet you it will be sooner than later bye for now your friend Jim.

I rescued a husky the first of November. Took her to the vet and our vet was out of town so I saw a fill in, she told us our rescued husky had a spay scare so she not pregnant but she has heart worms. We began a 30 day antibiotic treatment. Within a couple of weeks we began to realize that all of her weight gain was in her stomach. We got her in for an ultrasound. Her scare was a C section scare. She had been used as a breeder. Millie is only 2 years old. And pregnant again . Our vet believes she has had multiple litters. Thanksgiving day she gave birth to 7 gorgeous puppies. Right away we could see they are not huskies, two were labskies. The other 5 looked like border collie husky mix. Now we believe they are Bernice mountain dogs. They are adorable! 7 weeks old. Looking for great loving homes. If you are ready for a sweet puppy we would be happy to give you a puppy. I think you would really like them, all I ask is that you spay or neuter so that the puppies never end up like momma Millie. You can see Millie and her adorable puppies on youtube at (our huskies Dakota & Pearl.) Their birth as well as playful videos are on there. You will see Dakota. He thinks he is the daddy . He’s been neutered for years. But we just let him enjoy the honor of fatherhood. So if you hear us refer to him as the daddy, he’s the step daddy. Dakota is so proud of those puppies! Message me if you would consider giving one of these beautiful puppies a home. Leslye

I had the same feelings at 17 so I joined the Navy and spent 8 years seeing the world from McMurdo sound, Antarctica, Greenland, Mediterranean including many ports of Europe and finally Vietnam. After that I married and decided to leave the military. That would have been a great time for a bread truck but I took a few jobs ending up as a railroad freight Conductor for 22 years before forced disability. Good luck with your life.
