    Very Awesome! You are the first to ever come close to MY dream home.... when I was about 3; my Dad took me to meet a friend of his who was a commercial Horticultral nursery... I knew right then that I wanted to live inside of a greenhouse... I know it is hard to let go of the things that hold your heart; and this has been a wonderful showcase for your talent... but, now you will be able to do something else...something more.... and I am excited to see what will be next; if this is just your springboard.... You are very gifted... Please keep sharing your gift.. You can help many with it..... and, yes, I agree, the volume needs to improve... I often mute the volume on some videos
    ( I get more out of it without the bantor); but I couldn't get yours turned up high enough, and I really wanted to hear everything you had to say.....Thanks for the video, anyway....Shalom.

Your mosaics are just beautiful. They seem as if they’ve been there forever- somehow before the house. They just fit so well with the surroundings and environment. I’m positively head over heels in love with this home and the concept! Sorry you have to leave.

    Easiest way is just to create an RV parking spot inside a green house. That way you can stay warm on those extended cloudy patterns.

    • @yesican2012

      That's what I plan to do, but instead of a RV, the greenhouse will be over a shed to home structure.
      Too old to worry about leaks & frozen pipes. Woodburning stove will keep things warm when there's no Sun.

    I love the concept and I would love to live in a greenhouse. A tip for the camera-person: try to focus on one area which includes multiple aspects instead of moving back and for to each; this creates quite a sickening motion-sickness effect which is off-putting. I assume you wanted to film everything in a continuous shot to work around editing, but it's well worth using multiple shots and angles with transitions in between to reduce the amount of movement. Thank you for the tour.
