Well that took a lot less time than I expected! We originally got our yurt by getting a loan from my ‘ex’, who is also the mother of our son River.  She had come into an inheritance and was happy to help us to escape the rent-trap. Also it enabled us to move much closer to her (100 feet to be exact) making it a lot easier for us to share custody of our son with no driving.

Last week she received another large chunk of money and in an awesome gesture of generosity absolved us of our debt to her for the Yurt! So that’s it… we are now officially homeowners! Our home may be small, but it can never be taken away from us by a bank. Thank you Stephanie!!!!
