Dave and I will eventually build our own home. Self-sustaining, beautiful, earth ship by the sea. Or something like that, anyway. We have several ideas in mind. Going through HousePlansandMore.com, I realize how many different types of houses we can build. The Log Cabin House Plans are awesome. I would love to have everything wooden in our home, no paint, no artificial materials over our heads and between our walls. Then again, the English Cottage House Plans are also beautiful, with their gorgeous English styles and the sentimental emotion that comes with them. The style is so regal, so elegant. However, the Small Ranch House Plans are also really tempting. An open field of flat valley with a lovely ranch house, one story, plopped down right in the middle, for our children to run free. It would be like living in the plains again. Heh. My parents have a ranch home right now, and I have to admit — every time I go for a visit, it feels like taking a break from the 21st century just being in that house. I can’t wait for us to build our own beautiful dream home.
