    Ever since I first saw them, I've loved The Tiny Homes on Wheels! This would have been perfect for Don and I and a (small) pet or two!

  2. Oh, I won't be in BC until next month. Too bad. I enjoy Lloyd's blog and love checking out the tiny homes, especially the cob and straw bale ones, but they'll have to remain a dream for me because Dick and I can barely manage to get along in 1200 square feet. LOL

  5. Yes, it was very exciting to have our float cabin highlighted in Lloyd's new book. I will be going to Vancouver on Thursday to meet him for the first time. All of our communication so far has been by email. I am so excited. - Margy

  9. I got to go see Lloyd's presentation. Good thing I got there early. It was standing room only! I was so honoured that he used three shots of the cabin in his slide show, and left our rainbow picture over Goat Island up through the whole question and answer period. Thanks Lloyd. - Margy
