  • I miss the days before search engine optimization.

    Used to be able to find amazing stuff. Now, searches only get you the top paid for content.

    I remember in high school I found this guy’s blog that detailed how he built this amazing looking house off grid by himself (besides pouring the foundation). I dreamt of one day doing the same thing, following the plans he provided.

    In college, years later, I met my fiance. Late night I shared this dream with her and she was encouraging. I went to try to find that blog, thinking I need to save that info for my future self. I couldn’t find it. I searched for weeks trying to find it, but never did.

    I know there are resources on building your own place, but I absolutely loved his design. It had high ceilings, wrap around porch. Used geothermal heating, solar panels… Still makes me sad to think about.
