…and a ha-ppy new yeeeeear!
I’ve been doing a lot of soul-searching this past month, temps on my mountain have been very cold and nothing newsworthy has happened at the cabin lately. Though I’ve been offline a lot, I finally snapped outta my Xmas blues and snuck back online to wish y’all a fantastic 2012!
While it’s cozy here in the Christmas Corner, a big work push will be happening up at my compound right after I recover from my upcoming annual Jan 1 hangover.
Hopefully 2012 will see an addition to the cabin (oh yeah!), more decking, a sleeping loft (inspired by my friend Ranger X’s cabin!) and the successful online-ification of the recently completed “James P. Garzo Memorial Power Generating Facility”.
Gather ye young-’uns a-boot, pull that holiday goose outta yer oven and throw a cold glass of cheap Champagne on the fire for me!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone!
e. and 2011 are o-u-t!



And a “”Happy New Year”" to You as well!!!
I love reading your blogs ans snipets and I do pray your coming year is filled with light, love and adventure!!!

Your little house is so inspiring. I live in LA myself and have an obsession with small, eco-friendly, and affordable housing. I came across your blog through Westways and am really impressed with what you’re doing. Happy New Year!

thanks so much for the kind words. After these last 2 years of plotting and scheming, I’m surprised at how easily this is all coming together. Believe me, If I can do it, anybody can do it…seriously, anybody!

Stealth reader here surfacing to let you know that I love the Christmas Photo of you with that fabulous sweater. You got the first giggle of the morning. I really enjoy watching the progress on your tiny house.
I live in a 380 sq foot house in northern Idaho. I love the downshift from my previous 1500 sq foot house.
Happy 2012!

Fantastic Olivia,
Welcome and thanks! I’m excited to add another room onto my cabin so I can creep closer to 380 sq feet and full-time it, stay tuned and stay warm up there!

It looks like you are already moved in! I am in Ontario, Canada – built mine – partially last summer – and this summer hope to get a lot more done. Love your photos and your voice. I am looking forward to more reads! Laura
