Bob is unemployed (without a steady source of income) at the time of this photo he lived along the Union Pacific railroad tracks southwest of Las Vegas with four dogs for companionship in a vacate lot . Just a little over a mile from the Las Vegas strip but in view of more of the strip properties.
Bob comes from the back country of West Virginia, living on the streets of Las Vegas for over seven years, a US Army veteran. He makes his living from picking up scap metals, turning them in for money. He does not panhandle or beg for food, money or anything.
He has a normal route he travels daily rarely varying from it for his scap metal and other products, along with his favorite dumpsters where he retrives leftover food stuffs from stores, shops and restarunts in a little over 1 mile radius. This he feeds both himself and his four dogs.
