Earthship Guest Book

Here is the lovely, handmade guest book that Dad and Gail made for us for Christmas.  Dad selected beetle killed pine (hence the blue stain) from his basement and he and Gail crafted the wooden guest book container.  It was a thoughtful gift, using materials they already had on hand.  Although, Gail did admit the most expensive part was the engraving.  So I’m apologizing now for not calling our home the “hut”!

Nobody’s signed it yet, but we are saving the first four lines for the Fab Four:  Anna & Sean, James and Josh.

    I agree as well, it is beautiful! Hopefully I'll be able to get a word or two in it this year.

    It’s lovely and I’m glad to see the pine beetle wood was used (better than letting it go to waste, might as well used it, big deal the blue streaks). Still, so sad those little mofo’s are destroying the province! 🙁
    Not to leave on a sour note, great site and continued good luck with your earthship!

Sandra and Chris

Welcome to our homesteading adventure in south central BC, Canada! In 2009 we started building an earthship in Darfield. We moved in three and a half years later. Now that the biggest jobs are finished we are having fun homesteading in a modern world. Join us for discussions about finishing the earthship, food preservation, beekeeping, livestock, permaculture and how we interact with technology. It's all about simple living and stewardship of the land without deprivation. Together with our three teenagers we're learning as we go.
