Hobo Joe
Custom painted Figure
In Stock
(Hobo Anywhere)
I met this gentleman in Utah around 1973 when I was hitch hiking back from South Dakota. He called himself Hobo Joe, and claimed to be the last of the hard core rail riders (or something to that effect). He was trying his hand at hitch hiking because (he said) the rails were `becoming unreliable`. We hitched rides together for 3 days and parted ways in Eureka. He said he had `business` up in Oregon.
The first morning we met he offered me some doughnuts. After biting in to one of the cake doughnuts and discovering that it was staled I asked.
`How long you had these doughnuts in your suitcase?`
`Well, no, ya see,,,, these sinkers is fresh,,,, I just got em out the dumpster this morning.` Not wishing to appear ungrateful or uppity, I finished the doughnut, but declined another, as well as a sip from a bottle he pulled from his coat pocket and claimed with a wink; `My medicine`.
