5 Comments

Out of the four hundred plus posts I’ve written, the one that continues to draw the most steady traffic is about sod houses. In honor of that post, here’s all you ever wanted to know about frontier homes!


I’m particularly fond of the face I’m making in this still shot…

    Very interesting–both the content material and seeing you live and in action! So proud of you for not wearing your pj’s while recording (unlike moi). Next time I’ll get dressed and clean my room πŸ™‚

    That’s a great prop and informative video. It’s amazing how innovative people can be, finding ways to thrive no matter the conditions.

    Elle, now you’ve got me curious about pjs and vlogging! Tricia, I know. Pretty inspiring.

    Good job, Caroline! I feel so much smarter!

    And I love how confident you are on these vlogs. If I ever do one of these, I’m afraid I’ll be a rambling weirdo. I guess this is where your years as a teacher come in handy, right? πŸ™‚

    Oh, Amy. I recorded this many times, with varying levels of success. If ever I make an odd face, I’ve either flubbed something or can hear my children in the background. πŸ™‚
