My next, update, post is taking a while to write. In the meantime, I know some of you are into Earthship homes, so this re-blog contains an interesting linkie. Hope you are all having a great weekend and that temperatures are what you enjoy most. ~ Linne
I find this video most fascinating & went on looking at the full documentary which would take too much space here but you can look it up with the tittle “Garbage Warrior ALL ABOUT EARTHSHIPS – Full Length Documentary” on YouTube.

Lovely Linne, who wouldn’t want to live in a gorgeous Earthship like that! 🙂
I couldn’t resist re-blogging that one, Narfie; a great design, isn’t it?
🙂
I always think everyone out there has probably seen the videos I post so I’m really glad you thought it wasn’t the case & re-blogged so as to pass it further on 🙂
Have a lovely week!
