Floating Home v. Snow

Published by Steph at 11:02 pm under Floating Homes

Remember a little while back when I was whinging about the atypical weather in Portland and the minor fact that my house had no roof on it at the time?

Well, I just stumbled across a video of my nearby neighbor, Scott Niesen, who writes the Floating Home FAQ, shoveling snow off his deck so his house didn’t sink.

I swear you just can’t make stuff this good up.

My Dad e-mailed a link to your blog. I love what I see here and will be a happier follower of your adventure with Rumi the cat. As a kid I always dreamed of living on a houseboat. And as an adult, I’ve dreamed of living in a Hobbit Hole (just like an earth ship!). These are wonderful alternatives to the modern sub-division (YUK!)

Happy Blogging!

Hi, Kim! Thanks for the note. Of course, you realize you’re just encouraging me to post more cat anecdotes. If I can ever help you with info on houseboats/floating homes, let me know.

Ohmygosh. Tyson and I got a good laugh out of that one. Awesome!

Wow. I’m an internet tv star. Thanks for posting my silly video. The result of cabin fever no doubt.

Hi, Scott! Yes, you are. I can’t tell you how many times that video of yours has made me laugh. (This is exactly when my house was missing a roof. So, believe me, I needed the laugh.)

Thanks for stopping by.
