But it's still throwing some great light in a room that had zero natural light before.

These pics were shot with a wide angle lens, so there's a bit of fun-house effect going on. The ceilings aren't vaulted, and the rooms aren't nearly as long as the camera makes them look. Sorry for any pics which are incorrectly oriented or weirdly sized. Photobucket is giving me a hard time with th... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/GreenPartyVoter/15 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 16:44:32 Part 2 of My Flying House. Here's the [b][link:www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJdR3C8nzkg|video][/b] of the front half getting hauled up by the crane. (Also in high def for the patient.) The back half and inside pics are in separate posts.

(Pic heavy) Here's a [b][link:www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ao0CGS5GLk|video][/b] of the back half of my house flying through the air. If you have the patience to let it load, you can watch it in hi-def. I had been mentally preparing myself for the sight of a flying house, but I never thought of what it might sound ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/GreenPartyVoter/13 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 16:14:07 It's now a week and a half before the house modules arrive, so it was a relief to go to the site and see that the foundation is now done. (Well, almost done. The floor still needs to dry.)

Is it even possible to predict such things in correlation to rise in temperature and sea levels, or are there too many other variables to be able to know? http://flood.firetr... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/GreenPartyVoter/10 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 17:31:27 We got the loan and have started prepping the land for the house! (Pics inside) I wasn't sure about posting this after reading the HGTV house show thread. (I'm a total addict!) But if it helps, our first/current home is a trailer, and I am way, way past my mid-20s. :P (And my late parents made this possible for us. Thanks Mom and Dad, for this last amazing gift!)

I am writing to express my fervent desire to see the strongest possible public option enacted in our new health care system. I have been on Medicaid for most of my adult life, and I can tell you that it is the only reason I am mentally stable. Without it, I could never afford ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/GreenPartyVoter/1 Wed, 19 Aug 2009 15:39:22
