May go back and talk to these folks, see if I can have a look around.

These places are like people with small airplanes, sometimes the people are interesting.

Part of the front yard.

As mentioned I would like to get some better pictures.

Curious if this style of build offers any significant energy savings. Or is it all lost through the roof ?

as a owner of such a house, the energy savings is huge, I would approach them, be careful though you will get one of two reactions, very welcoming or

for people that just walk around my house (it does happen) I have the second reaction ( minus the gun ), but if someone is really interested and asks me to see it, i am more than happy to show them

HAHA.......

Maybe he will take me to the VFW !

Great to hear about the energy, I assumed such, but wanted to ask the experts.

This place is way nicer looking than these pictures show.

I will try to get some better pictures.
