Anyone ever visit the Glass House on Kootenay Lake? Not as fancy as some of these, but still cool to visit. A house made out of glass bottles.

From website: This unusual roadside attraction was built from over half a million discarded embalming fluid bottles

Hmmm...what kind of fluids?

(Interesting place, Van - I'll have to look out for it if I'm there.)

Hey ! That glass house is kinda neat looking. It would likely be well preserved.

I love that earth house JJ.

Hey Michel. Thanks for the explanation of backhouse. I have never heard that term before. We always called it an outhouse.....but backhouse tells the story too.
