I realize this blog has been a bit sparse lately. Mainly because I’m funneling almost all of the building posts to https://www.theshelterblog.com. Also, it’s kinda stressful to get something new up each day PLUS I’m starting to work on our new Stretching pocketbook.
Next week I’ll be in Oregon doing slide shows and book signings for Tiny Homes on the Move
-Portland – Powell’s, 1005 West Burnside Street, Wednesday, July 30, 7:30 PM
-Corvallis – Grass Roots Books, 227 SW 2nd St., Thursday, July 31, 7 PM
-Eugene – University of Oregon, Library Browsing Room, 1501 Kincaid, Friday, Aug. 1, 4 PM. We’ll be giving out some mini books.
I’ll be posting from Oregon, so things will pick up by next Tuesday (July 29th).
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:
Lloyd;
Please check your July/August calendar. The days of the week and dates don't match up. It would be a shame to miss you because of a tiny miscalculation on the move…
Dang it. Was in Powells last week. And being that we live in PA, a return trip is not in the works anytime soon.
Sharkey, Thanks! Correct now.
