“Small rooms or dwellings discipline the mind, large ones weaken it.” – Leonardo Da Vinci
i have started thinking about building a house. one month from today i leave for costa rica, and if all goes according to plan i will be helping my friend marc build a house on his property. in the back of my mind, this may be a warmup project for building a place of my own. we’ll see how that plan develops, but i surfed onto a post with lots of links to people living in smaller houses, and it definitely set my mind racing with romantic notions of a wee place in the big outdoors. i know, one man’s walden is another’s unabomber shack, so if i do end up with something like this i won’t wear hoodies with mirrored shades and a bad porn ‘stache.
i might grow back the ‘stache. in any case, something to mull over on a sunday night.
