Photo at left after show. Mom had me inscribe book to her guitar man here.
Sent from the China Moon B&B on Denman, where I have just had maybe the best breakfast dish ever (yes, I’m given to superlatives) fruit, local organic apple juice, local eggs done hollandaise on cornbread and a croissant. Excellent coffee. This is a great place to stay. Plus good wi-fi out here on this peaceful homestead.
I’m doing a bit of writing now, then heading to Victoria for the next phase of this adventure.
About Lloyd Kahn
Lloyd Kahn started building his own home in the early '60s and went on to publish books showing homeowners how they could build their own homes with their own hands. He got his start in publishing by working as the shelter editor of the
Whole Earth Catalog with Stewart Brand in the late '60s. He has since authored six highly-graphic books on homemade building, all of which are interrelated. The books, "The Shelter Library Of Building Books," include
Shelter,
Shelter II (1978),
Home Work (2004),
Builders of the Pacific Coast (2008),
Tiny Homes (2012), and
Tiny Homes on the Move (2014). Lloyd operates from Northern California studio built of recycled lumber, set in the midst of a vegetable garden, and hooked into the world via five Mac computers. You can check out videos (one with over 450,000 views) on Lloyd by doing a search on YouTube:

You are having a great BC tour. I am so glad you are enjoying yourself and finding great places to visit and stay. Hope you can make it to Powell River one day. If you do, I'd be glad to host you at the float cabin and show you around. – Margy
Wow, great sales per head, Lloyd.
I stayed at China Moon in 1998!! Great people. I don't think they had wi-fi back then, but they definitely had their website up; that's how I found them.
