Fanatic about Floors!

How to build a home in the “Ewok Village 3000” style in 13 steps or less:

Step 1: Find you some big strong, handsome men to build it for you (oh and a little dog too!)

Step 2: Find a prime piece of land. Hopefully in some sort of shade and somewhat leveled ground

Step 3: Find and cut down some logs

Step 4: Fashion those logs into a foundation

Step 5: Next, take a rest after nailing all of the 2x4s into place- you deserve it!

Step 6: Complete the frame. Pat yourself on the back.

Step 7: Find a handy-dandy-generous-neighbor who will lend you not only his excavator, but also his time and talents just out of the goodness of his heart.

Step 8: Use said excavator to haul ply wood (purchased from Watson Lake) into camp to save SO MUCH time!

Step 9: Entertain the babies while the boys work

Step 10: Scratch step 9. Instead, use the dog (since he’s not helping much anyway) to entertain the kiddos


Play “Where is Chauncho?” with Phi

Water the “Garden” and cross your fingers (and green thumb!) that it will revive.

Step 11: Fasten your previously purchased ply wood onto completed foundation. Test it out for stability.

Step12: Begin constructing tent

Step 13: Vwa-la!

Step 14: Rest. You’ve worked hard.

Love, Fanatic about Floors!
