I also love homes on stilts. Just come back from the hills in northern India and many of the homes are like this. On the ground floor they tend to keep animal and feed. This keeps the house warm. It's a great tradition!

Hi Sally - that's neat info.........
But I think I like the 21st century much better than 1938.....those one piece bathing suits just won't do. No, No, No way!

Thanks offy, this is real cool. I guess if one lives like this , one need not fear the wild fires because the fire definitely cannot get across the water. Yea, you are right about the girls.

It would be cool to live in one of those! Except it wouldn't be a good idea to build one here! The 120 kph winds and the 10 mt waves would destroy it in no time!
