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.

Love it, of course being "rocks"…grin.
However, it also brings to mind, a mystery I once read…
a man's wife disappeared. He soon after began building a giant stonework, much like above. Everyone was certain the wife was dead underneath. Nope, it was merely a distraction, and to give the authorities something to occupy their time/dig up and prove him innocent. (Wife was buried elsewhere on property. Hope not so here…)
Its a cairn, they are used as trail markers.
