I could live in a teepee if I wanted. That's rare in the U.S. these days, but a situation I greatly appreciate.

I'm sure that right to live as you wish will eventually disappear here too. ....

I wish it were like it here too. I would like it even better if the code were good and following it would be voluntary. I would follow draining, electrical and lighting protection. I would ditch roof angle, exterior material/color and such nonsense.

I hope you get to keep your way of life.

I didn't mind! I just felt silly correcting something so small at first, then I felt too embarrassed to correct you after leaving it so long.

It's tempting to call Ben Franklin an idiot but then I remember some of the stuff i've done. My skin still crawls whenever I think about when I was 14 and decanting butane gas from camping cylinders into a bigger container, in open air, in the garage... maybe we're just both idiots!

My niece lives is Florida. She updated her Facebook earlier to say;

"Take a nap when it's nice and sunny and wake up to what feels like the world ending... "

So, I guess they have it pretty bad too. :(
