On Monday, I had the chance to drive up North and visit my little brother. He basically lives in The Little House on the Prairie. He built a 300 square foot cabin, post and beam style with no power tools. He has a loft to sleep in, a water pump outside, an outhouse and an outdoor shower. It's a beautiful spot and makes me think about simplifying my life even further.

Oh my goodness. Put this little house on the beach, and I'd never leave. How adorable!!

So cool! I grew up in a post and beam cabin in the woods of Mississippi, built by my father for less than $5,000. I've always identified with Little House!

This is so very cool! I love hearing about people who live like this! My parents lived in a one room plus a loft A- Frame cabin (that my dad built) in Oregon when they had me. I guess that whole lifestyle is in my blood. :)

this is awesome + inspiring...every single day i dream of drastically simplifying...selling off loads of stuff and moving the family into a tiny house.
