The House That Larry and Nancy Built

About a week ago I watched the videos of this project at www.wildcenter.org/netzerohouse. Then I found this link to an article by the owner. The house they built is awesome… Go check it out.

On a sunny April afternoon a local realtor phoned to say that a place had just come up for sale on River Road in Lake Placid. My wife, Nancy, and I had been looking half-heartedly for a lakeshore property for several years, but the Realtor knew us better than we knew ourselves. When we first laid eyes on the property we were awestruck. The view from the existing cottage, of the Sentinel wilderness and the West Branch of the Ausable River, was nothing short of spectacular.
