all press and no work
Just a day of organizing things then about 5 hours of entertaining Wyatt (reporter/producer) and Mike (photographer) from KWES 9 in Midland. Gave me an excuse to clean house and show off for a day.
With all the press you're getting, plus the blog, the only thing keeping you from being overrun with curiosity-seekers is the sheer distance from population centers. Let's hope it stays that way! The casa looks great. Nice interior shots.
Wow, great comments, especially about the use of particle board and youtube. I suspect cost was the deciding factor on particle board, because plywood would be the same weight and give you more rigidity. YouTube--you go your own thing going on there, right?
2 phones?
ReplyDeleteHey, when are we gonna see you on RFD TV?
ReplyDeleteGood job, tidy!
ReplyDeletek1p,
ReplyDeleteJohn has said in a previous post that one is a regular phone line and one is used for unlimited phone calls via the MagicJack USB device.
So John what was the angle of their story? I hope you already asked them for a DVD of the story. You should get it by Christmas.

I love the bright cheery colors inside your place, our cabin is still shades of wood on wood.

Would you be allowed to upload that interview as well as the TCR piece to YouTube?
ReplyDeleteHey,
ReplyDeleteWhy do you use particle board instead of plywood inside the house?

ReplyDeleteYour room looks like Van Gogh's in Arles if he had lived off-the-grid, but we know he had all the advantages of modern living.
