Response from the owner Thank you for your efforts Jordi in recreating our beautiful garden fence to match the style of the tiny log cabin, building our natural bathroom (outhouse), moving materials in the supply yard, making firewood, fixing a shed roof, and helping to build the next tiny house! Jordi is quite skilled in construction and he is an amazing architectural drafter! We even got a drawing of the Earth House at Terra Casa! Thanks again Jordi and perhaps that Route 66 road trip would work out in the future ;)
