Skirting a Tiny House - Why and How

Two days ago we had a storm front move through Oklahoma that has brought high winds. The trees are being stripped of their golden leaves and acorns make a pitter-pat on the roof as they fall out of the trees. The temperature has dropped and this morning temps are in the low 40's. We are facing our first hard freeze this weekend. Last year we had our first snow at this time, so I am not complaining about just getting rain.

8 Electric Heater Styles that are Actually Attractive

Finally the weather is beginning to shift here in Oklahoma. Tonight we have our first frost warning. How exciting, right?  Living in a tiny house things need to be practical for sure, but shouldn't everything be attractive as well? That got me poking around investigating electric heaters that will work well in a Tiny House. 

Here are 8 electric heater styles for your Tiny House that are both practical and attractive. They vary in cost from under $50 to around $500.  Each of these is available on Amazon for easy ordering and shipping. Just click on any of the pictures to learn more about it such as cost, measurements, and energy usage. Super easy shopping via Tiny House Homestead. Can't beat that, right?

Here we go...

Winter's Last Gasp

Three weekends in a row of snow and ice have passed. It appears that Mother Nature has had enough fun with Oklahoma. Spring is just a couple of weeks away and tonight we set our clocks forward an hour. Today the temperature was in the 70's. It is hard to believe that it was snowing heavily earlier this week and temperatures were so low travel was restricted and schools closed for two days in a row. I am sad that winter is ending, but excited about beginning the process of preparing and planting my gardens. Here are some shots of Winter's last hurrah.








I am undecided which season is my favorite at this point. For now, I will enjoy them all. 

Spring forward everyone!
