Strawbale House Build

We’re still working on our strawbale house. The heat has slowed us down, but should be cooling off soon and hopefully things will be more productive. Thanks for watching.

Oh wow! Loved the wildlife. That rainbow first of all was super cool over your home. I am so jealous cause I have yet to see a Gila monster. My habitat just isnt dry/sandy/rocky enough for them I figure. Yep home building off grid is a real gradual process for most of us. Thanks for the update folks and I wish you well.

Thanks, Don. It's just too bad, and you know as well as we do, that the pictures just can never really do justice to how beautiful it is out here!

Love seeing those monsters!

[@MidlifePrices]

Crazy looking critters!

That was some hard working by the pool! Those margarita glasses must have been heavy! It will be so nice when you have the new solar system setup. You'll stand at the fridge with the door open and won't have to hear that voice in your head saying: "Do you own stock in the electric company?" If you do hear that voice though, just tell it: "Why yes I do!"

Looking forward to it! But Pam and I will never leave the fridge door open for more than 2 seconds! 🤣

Thanks, RG! You, too!

[@ServiceTrek]

glad you guys took some breaks this summer ... cool off and recharge ... good luck with the rest of the build.

[@MidlifePrices]

Thanks! It's a bummer to move so slowly, but we're here to enjoy ourselves, too, right?

[@lanec5672]

You've come such a long way...
Thanks for adding the gila monster -- one of my favorite desert critters!

[@MidlifePrices]

They walk pretty funny!

It's part of her charm! 😃

[@skwest]

Indeed. 👍

[@ronaldclark2624]

Hello. I am new here. The vultures are riding a thermal also called an updraft of air, a very common occurrence in dessert areas. They just soar. They may be and probably are looking for dinner? Ron PTL USA

[@MidlifePrices]

They're definitely cool to watch! Also get an owl from time to time sitting on top of the mountain and takes off to hunt. Super neat to see! Thanks for visiting!

The end shot of Brian taking 5 minutes ? ;)
