did you ever see their home in Maple Plain ?

it was entirely of FOAM, sprayed over snow fence for walls and over a
big-top style tent for the roof

center support was a 24" concrete column with a 10" open center for the
fireplace flue

the front door looked just like the front door of Fred Flintstone's house

Jim used to tell the story of how he was out of town one winter weekend and
a blizzard struck and cut power, he called home ot make sure LitaBeth was OK
and she said she had to 'light a few more candles to keep the temperature at
72'....it was that well insulated

LitaBeth made and sold Navajo-style jewelry, as I recall
