Tiny House Workshop

The workshop was great, oh man were we tired when we got back! The two flights and pre-dawn wake up coupled with all the information crammed into our heads made us zombies for a while. Most of the information is explained in the tiny house book, but the questions from the participants got down to the nitty gritty of it all.

I didn't take any pictures of the group, but picture a hotel "conference" room with a bunch of people facing the front, there you got it. 

I did get this one of us though, enjoying a HUGE ice cream cone for just a 'single' scoop, at the Portland Saturday/Sunday market. Ok, maybe huge is over rating it... but it was really rich, and way to much for the both of us. We decided we should have split one. Oh well..... 

We're in discussion still about how to go about building a tiny house. I've contacted our code department but have yet to get a response. I think we might rent out the entire house if we move into the tiny house in the back yard. Then we could really save for land or whatever we decide to do at that point. We may just stay here and buy land to farm on. Or the other thing I thought of is leasing land. Can we get an acre or two to raise turkeys, chickens bees and a garden on but not live there? Maybe rent the land and exchange food instead of money? Ideas.....

  1. If you want land in Idaho to lease, I know a lady you might want to call.

    Also, that blond chick totally photobombed you guys. For the longest time I thought you were holding an ice cream cone and a barbie figurine. I just couldn't figure it out. Hah.
