We’re closer this week to Las Vegas in order to get civilized stuff done, but my impressions of the city haven’t formed well enough to post about it. So I’ll show off the pink tiny house in its entirety, woohoo! The Whole Shebang This one was, by far, my favorite to build. I’m getting the […]

Pink Sofa Tiny House: Bedroom, Bath, Lighting
As this comes together, I’m loving it more. Here’s a link to the another sections of this house I’ve finished previously. Bedroom I don’t know where people are supposed to store their clothes, but who the heck cares. By the way, all the wiring for the lights are hidden under the headboard. . Bathroom These […]
Tiny House Kitchen
So, the Pink Sofa Tiny House turns out to have a green velvet sofa as part of the kitchen. Very strange. The cooking section of the kitchen is cool though. Those milk cartoons were a pain to fold, but I like how they look. I got the faucet right, too. You can’t tell from the angle, but that […]
Yellowstone Primer (plus a new tiny house)
If you’re like I was, completely ignorant of what’s special about Yellowstone, I’ll give you a layman’s quickie description. Long ago, a giant volcano left still-hot magma under the surface here. Pockets of heated gases and brine have formed right under the top layer of earth due to <insert geological stuff I don’t understand, plus […]
Waterwheel Tiny House Finished!
I made lots of errors on this one, but it’s the most visually interesting one I’ve made, despite that. I took on the wiring job myself this time, and voila! All the lights work but one. (There’s always one!) And I don’t mean to disparage Tracy’s skills as an electrician; he did completely retire our […]
Waterwheel Tiny House Update
I’ve done so much work on this one since I last posted about it that I thought it deserves its own post. This way people who don’t give a darn can skip it easily, too. So this one has been the most challenging, and not because of all the fiddly work but because the instructions are, […]
Waterwheel Tiny House Start
I don’t know if this is a good use of my time or not. I constantly chide myself that I’m not spending my downtime productively, like researching more about where we are and where we’re going, being better on top of the trailer maintenance schedule, or, heck, even something more productive personally, like learning a […]
Impossible Tiny House Finished!
This one was torture. The detail work was so small and fiddly that I didn’t want to work on it late at night when I couldn’t sleep, and that was the whole point of it. I got it done though, and I’m hoping no one but me can see the mistakes and all the details […]
Homecoming (of a sort)
We made it to the first stop in our four-week tour of Virginia, Maryland, and D.C.: Richmond, my hometown. Kinda. I grew up in the countryside outside of Richmond, and the place has grown like wildfire since I left (like everywhere in the world, pretty much). As soon as we pulled in to our site, […]
Inventory Swap for Post-vaccine Life
I know I’ve mentioned this a thousand times, but when we packed up the trailer and took off on March 20, 2020, we had no idea what the world would look like in a few weeks or months—let alone a year. This old tune probably sounds tedious to you because you were in the same […]
