Summer 2009

Haven't been updating much. Have a book due the end of this month, Teen Genreflecting, 3rd edition and working full time trying to support 38 school libraries and 3 or 4 schools that need libraries.
Life on the Edge is still wonderful, unfortunately I'm not home as much as I would like. Every year the earthship becomes more comfortable as it knits itself into the earth. We now have a "cold entry" at the west end, the main entrance which has further regulated the interior climate. It can be blazing hot outdoors, very warm in the entry area, and just perfect when we go through the door into the main part of the house. We had some scorching temps in July, up in the 90s but the 'ship never got over 78 degrees Fahrenheit. We haven't even turned on the ceiling fans this summer.
