We have this so called walking house. The artists left it here for free storage. It does not work and is a great embarrassment to staff at the wysing center in Cambridge. We have made up many excuse for the not working . Now it is time for it to be moved away or destroyed. please

It feels good to have a garden and have fresh veggies.

This shed/wagon is sooo cute. I am really glad that you added a flickr badge to your blog. So great to get others’ ideas on sheds. I’m going to tell my friend to upload her recycled door shed when she’s done.
Happy Holidays!

OMG, I definitely want to see that recycled door shed, Jayme! Keep me posted – it sounds great!

The walking house looks like a rock-tumbler. Or a rotating compost bin. Something perhaps designed after eating brownies in Berkeley.
Proof- Newer doesn’t always mean better. Sometimes it just means weirder.
The gypsy carraige looks like a fairy tale.
My conclusion-
Better to live in a fairy tale than a compost heap.

Hi Debra: The gypsy wagon especially made me think of the ice wagon art colony established by Grant Wood in Stone City, Iowa. I always thought that would be so romantic, especially if I had a couple of ponies to pull my colorful painted wagon. I can just imagine a garden-writers’ gypsy-wagon colony, parked somewhere for the summer, perhaps, or trundling around the countryside with our plans and plants (and computers). We would always travel to salubrious climates. What fun it would be. With cheer, M

It made me a nervous wreck to watch those legs slowly propel the house forward. I’ll take the little house in the woods.~~Dee

Creative. Inventive. As long as people keep thinking and trying, they’ll eventually hit on something really remarkable…this may not be it, but it’s entertaining.
