I attended a birthday for a man called jimbo. He is a shrimper her in Florida and he just turned 80.The story behind the man is that he owned some water front property where he would leave his boat. The city wanted the property to build some homes so the made him an offer and he declined. After the first attempt the city made to more offers but with no change in answer, so the city took his land away by force gave him the money and relocated him to national park near a power plan until he dies then they take it back. But he does not live their he bought a home somewhere ells but he still parks his boat there, so insted of wasting the property he lets the homeless live there as long as they keep the area clean. And now they have a party every year for him were hundreds attending.
