Earth Ships - Check em out

Down in Taos, where sustainability is reality.

(That sounds like some kind of Vanilla Sky tagline... but it reallyis cool. {just like lucid dreaming is really cool})


Though this trip was not one of my favorites of the summer, we did get to go back through Taos and go on the Earthship tour. I'd like to one day speak with people who have built them and really get inside the heads of those who live in these intelligently designed structures.

I want to build one.


Beautiful Taos.


This is the Visitor's Center for Earthships. Which is a home re-used for informing people about earthships.




All of the water is re-used FOUR times. As it should ...


... built into the ground for heating and cooling purposes ...


The life and color inside is generally very welcoming and health - lots of plants and light.


Until next time . . .

Cameron, Chris' gf from NYU who I visited and stayed with in Argentina, has a brother who works full time constructing those Earth Ships. Pretty cool no?
