The bathroom with reed ceiling. The reed door has a translucent plastic on the interior for a little more privacy.

So, this isn't a picture of Caroline's home, but I just got it developed and I thought it was cool.

We headed down to Bluff this past weekend to finish some details on the house. Caroline took the opportunity of having us down there to have a traditional Navajo home blessing. There was some confusion as to when it was taking place, so only a few of us were there, but she did throw a nice house blessing party afterwards. It was nice to see all her family there and to see the house being used.

The Fireorb had its first test run. It worked like a champ. We could feel significant heat coming from this small fire. Posted by Picasa
