Sorry about the lousy pictures in this pre-remodeling series. I snapped them in a great rush of enthusiasm to dig into these remodeling projects.

The overhead sleeping loft in my Lazy Daze quickly became an attic junk room

The junk has to go - there's no room in this new "Lazy Daze Light" program for junk. I've been living here long enough now to know the sleeping loft will never be my bedroom. I tore out the queen size mattress and little storage box at the head of the bed. And the lift-up "floor" over the cab too.

Wait 'til you see how this area is being transformed. Seeing that area opened up gave me ideas.

It's Time to Go Home

The truth about nature is that she is inside us, all around us, just waiting for us to ask her what to do. The truth about civilization is that it was an honest mistake, an invention that was necessary at the time, a mere 30,000 years ago, when nature appeared to be letting us down and we thought we could do better. But now it has outlived its usefulness, and is out of control, and threatens the survival of all life on our planet, so it's time to let it go. It's time to move forward and imagine and invent a new culture, a sustainable one that works for all creatures on Earth, drawing on the best learnings from nature and the best innovations from civilization.

It's time to go home.
