I'd advise you to enjoy these non-chart, non-corn posts while they last because this blog may soon revert to its former repertoire.Mr. Riggenbachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11794236758126578018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1271879804911490046.post-61548215595197660292010-05-04T17:46:19.739-05:002010-05-04T17:46:19.739-05:00My take on the boulders-in-rooms: maybe when they ...My take on the boulders-in-rooms: maybe when they were building the house, there happened to be some big boulders on the building site, and it was just too troublesome to move them, so they decided to embrace them as decor. Ok, so it's a lame idea, but can you come up with anything better?<br /><br />If you ever want to go to a Long John Silvers/Taco Bell combo restaurant, you don't have to go all the way to Arizona... you can come visit us. We have one about 10 minutes from us. By my calculation, that's a mite closer to home.<br /><br />P.S.

Though I'm sure it is much better than living without a roof over your head!<br /><br />So... was the air coming out of the cavern warmer than the surface air, or was it colder?Emil Bandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11311347482998393702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1271879804911490046.post-23687300859667994032010-05-03T13:03:22.619-05:002010-05-03T13:03:22.619-05:00I have been to the Taco Bell side of that fast foo...I have been to the Taco Bell side of that fast food restaurant in Flagstaff...I remember us thinking the same thing..."odd combination"....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13844992756511222020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1271879804911490046.post-29325115803452258162010-05-03T12:34:03.521-05:002010-05-03T12:34:03.521-05:00I'm with Gretel...

Or maybe one could build a fire around/under one of these large boulders in order to heat them, with the idea that they would retain the heat for a lengthy period of time, and maybe be a sort of heater? Wild guesses here! It is fun to think of possibilities though isn't it☺Diane Shifferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03449110271720365988noreply@blogger.com
