I'm looking at these structures through eyes watching the aftermath of wildfire, fearing that the old houses lost, many of the hundred-year-old former summer homes, will be replaced with soulless rectangular tract-style houses, stuccoed for fire resistance with that stodgy sand color that sends me into shrieking fits, and fitted with blank eyes for windows. But wouldn't that first house, the hip-roofed one, be gorgeous with metal siding? Not that metal siding alone guarantees anything other than an improved chance against fire.
Lloyd, have been following this and very much enjoying it. I've been writing about "back to analog" and looking into designing zines, books, etc. without computers. Paste up as in ye olde days.
Am getting down to doing a "blog by mail" thing where I mail quarterly updates via 11x17 sheets tri-fold (which still qualifies for standard first-class mail ala a stamp).
I'd love to see notes from you on how you layout, design, etc. the analog way...
Fantastic Lloyd! Takes me back to a gentler time and frame of mind. I especially love Bishop, stayed in town for a few weeks many years ago. Still remember it fondly, small as it is. Thanks for this look back, Robin b
Love the Marin hillside…saving the planet one piece at a time. Many years ago I worked for Jerry and Don’s and it was my pleasure to drive around Marin and Sonoma countrysides…Still warms my heart…it does remind me that slow and steady, directional…wins.
I feel transported by these pages.

Thank you so much for sharing your marvelous work.
Love this too! Reminds me of the 70s when my dad would take us all over searching for interesting things in the West. It was formative.
Love these photos and your descriptions/commentary. Thank you Lloyd.
