Magnificent. Can't remember, is it getting a wood stove? Wherever you park it, sheep will come from miles around, and you know what they'll say? "Not baaaaaaad."

Did the Rio Grande drainage get normal snow this winter?

Hey now, it is common knowledge that all the sheep in CO are divorcees from WY.

We are about 75% of normal on snow.
I am not going to have a wood stove. As well insulated as it is I think it would over heat. I am installing a small propane heater. It is a heater that is used in sail boats.

Nice. Question. What is that building you are building this thing in? It looks huge.

What is the size of it. Are you sliding it on a trailer temporary to haul it then remove it or are you putting an axle under it? looks great show us some more pics as it progresses.

I am putting it on a custom trailer. It will be built out of aluminum. It will be a regular camper. You will be able to pull it down the road at interstate speeds.
