Austin, TX

Winfield, Kansas- home to the Blue Grass Music Festival but not of it. If anyone is planning on travelling extra cheap to/from the Southwest to/from the NorthEast or travelling north or south through the Midwest, you'll want to make note of Winfield, Kansas as a temporary rest stop. The public library at 605 college street has almost unlimited internet access in the morning and evening, id required. Across the street is the recreation center with free hot showers. Adjacent to the library is an abandoned college dormitory that could easily be squatted if you wanted to but the public park next to it would prolly be better. Last but not least, at 320 College is a food pantry open M-F, 8-11AM.

St. Louis, Missouri -land of beer and crack dinners while good fruit rots on backyard trees. maps to where the free stuff's at

Madison Wisconsin- Madison is a pretty cool college town and the people and the cops are pretty chill for the most part. i wouldnt reccomend drinking on the street there cause you can do some pretty serious jail time for public drunkeness and open containers, especially if your underage. Most of the kids hang out on state street and peace park. you can use the internet for free at the student hall which is right on the lake. Theres also a free meal 4 days a week at the catholic church on campus. theres a couple decent camping spots on campus and by the lake

Michigan City, IN
(from crimethinc.net)... if you're hitching on the 80-94 expressway in NorthWest Indiana go to MIchigan City east till you hit highway 421 and go south 1/4 mile. There is a gas station/ truck stop called Krazy D's that my pal works at... The cameras aren't checked!!! Also you can hitch up with one of the many thousands of truckers that buy gas there every day, since 80-94 is a major cross country highway have fun!!
