Strange House

I found a few pictures of some other strange houses.

This first one looks as if it is made up of cargo containers. I would be afraid to stand so close to the windows or put any heavy furniture in that room.  I also would have built it right on the edge of the water so the top would hang right over the water.

This next house is very precariously placed.  I would hate to be sleep-walking around the yard.  I think it would be cool to have transparent floors so you could watch the boats go by.

When will the ice be off Lake Minnetonka? Ice melting off a lake means spring and melts away spring fever.

Everyone is anxious for the ice to be off the lake. We live in an area where we get cabin fever at this time of the year and we just can’t wait for one of the first signs of spring; the ice totally melting off the lake.

Many people try to predict the exact date, people have “Ice Off” parties, and the winter blaas just seem to melt away along with the ice!

Do you want to move off the lake…

If you want to move off the lake, it is easier to just move yourself, not your house too!

VirginiaThe Phone is Starting to Ring!

The phone is starting to ring again

The phone is starting to ring again. For a few months, I felt like the Matag repair man. I couldn’t figure out why my phone wasn’t ringing. Were there no sellers or buyers out there that needed my help? I just couldn’t figure it out. Then, last month, my phone started to ring again. Sellers were talking about wanting to listen to me about price. Buyers were thinking the bottom was here, or at least near, and they wanted in. I am “back in the saddle again.” Yea!! Spring has indeed Sprung!!

Strange House of the Day

I love this one! Its a museum turned upside-down. It looks as if some giant monster picked this building up and dropped it on its head. What a great idea.

This place is called wonderworks and its located in orlando florida. You can see a complete animation of the house being “placed” at the wonderworks website.

This is a really great example of some amazing architecture. What an incredible attraction! I hope to visit someday.

Strange House of the Day

This is more like a strange building, but I still think it fits in here.

It’s a nice fire escape!

I would be scared if the dragon part wasn’t there yesterday!

Isn’t it fun to look at unusual buildings?

Strange House of the Day

This one somehow reminds me of the torch on the Statue of Liberty.

I also see a giant solar ice cream cone. Don’t eat it though. No one wants glass in their mouth.

I think I need more privacy than that. I would also like a bigger foundation. I can’t do laundry in that little tiny basement.

Skate shaped house

My daughters love to figure skate. I found this picture and I just asked one of them if she would like to live in this house. She said she would not. I said it looks like a figure skate. She said it looks like a shoe. My husband thinks it is a boot. I still say it is a skate. No matter what it is, it is an interesting house. I think it would be fun to stay there for a night or two.

Strange house #1

I have a new affection for looking at strange houses. I started googling strange houses and, to my surprise, there are a LOT of them.

This first strange house I found must have been owned by a sea lover or a boat lover. Or perhaps when the flood water subsided, they were too tired to move it back to the water.

If I had a donkey for every time I saw a house like this, I would have one donkey.

I wonder if a guy named “Noah” owns this house.

At least if the flood comes, they will be safe.

And finally…

At least you wont get sea-sick on this boat!
