That’s one hell of a wood pile you’ve got there buddy. A Scandinavian wood pile indeed. It’s cold here and you need to play with your wood. And how about this configuration from Germany we came across in 2007? I like it… Imagine a sauna with these walls?

Today was national Spumoni day. In homage to our new found favorite dessert we paid another visit to Spumoni Gardens.

“Truth windows” are small windows made in an interior wall surface in order to expose the material within. Traditionally, they reveal straw bale used to insulate some houses.

We have some problems in our country and they need to be solved, we can’t sit idle. Any opinions on the article linked below? I largely agree with the piece. At this point I would still vote for Obama, we have to support him in 2012, but while giving support to our government we also […]
