Hello Hippie Earth Woman with the will of Thor and Moira, I'm mixing mythologies, I know. (Moira was the the equivalent of The Supreme Court Judge above Zeus.)

You did it and made your marriage stronger too. An impressive story and an impressive house. Inspiring thanks.

My Uncle Howie built his modest house on the Connecticut coast line without an architect and made some solar panels for the hot water heater in the 1960s. My dad had to eat his words - that it wouldn't work when it did. lol.
