Anthony Anderson..in the FLOW..and sharing some major INFO.  Please watch… and get ready to be INSPIRED!!

There’s tons of  information being shared in this video and so much passion!!  I’m humbled to be learning from such beautiful minds and souls, such as brother A’s.

Thanks for pursuing your passion Anthony. You’re glowing bro..you’re absolutely glowing!!

I’ve watched this video twice now, not only because it’s so info – dense, but because it just makes me feel SO good.  The passion jumps off the screen at me.  It’s contagious….and very delicious to the soul.

Earthships – Michael Reynolds

Posted by Jake. 8 Comments


SO, my questions are, WHY is this message not spreading like WILDFIRE???  Why are people like Michael Reynolds not being awarded the NOBEL PRIZE??

I think about staying warm and living well, especially when it starts getting close to freezing around here…so many people, including myself, would find themselves hungry, freezing and worried, if the power went out, mid winter…SO WHY WORRY??  Why not do it now, because it’s the right choice, on so many other levels than just surviving.  My opinion is these houses are MUCH nicer and kind to the body, than the boxes most of us find ourselves living in currently.

I’m done asking…..WHY….I’m getting started…… TODAY!!!!!  My dream is to build an Earthship, near a spring and grow food for all who are hungry…..WE CAN DO THIS!!  WE CAN DO IT NOW!!

I love this message and this technology….my prayer is that it does spread….and FAST!!  If you haven’t seen the Garbage Warrior yet…watch it ASAP!!!  So much info being given to us by this man’s work.

Thank YOU… Michael Reynolds!!!!!!


Books are available too, with detailed schematics on building one of these yourself….such powerful info!!!

Earthship: How to Build Your Own, Vol. 1
Earthship: Systems and Components vol. 2

Earthship: Evolution Beyond Economics, Vol. 3

Pah Tempe Hot Springs.. “Healing Water”

Posted by Jake. 11 Comments

We recently took a journey… 5 minutes down to the road…to our local hot spring.  It’s called Pah Tempe, which means…the “Healing Water“..in Paiute.  It’s owned and cared for by a very kind family who deeply honor the Native American and early immigrant settlers who came to heal from these waters.  They live here full time growing their own food and caring for these sacred waters and the surrounding land.

We express our deepest gratitude to this family..for their life’s work..and to those who passed before them…who treated this place sacredly.

For more information, or to make a reservation,  phone them at:

This is a very special place, you’ll love it!

Here’s a little photo tour and video of our adventure!

Pah Tempe Hot Springs, also known as La Verkin or Dixie Hot Springs, are located along the Virgin River near where the river cuts through Timpoweap Canyon along the Hurricane Cliffs between the towns of Hurricane and La Verkin.

The springs issue at about 42°C (108°F) from multiple vents in fractured limestone. Widespread basalt flows ranging in age from 2 million years to 1,000 years old lie in the vicinity of the springs, possibly relating to local heat sources for the thermal water. (source)
