Sometimes, real life reads like a fairy tale. Consider Jim's story: a Vietnam vet who dreamed of creating an enchanting and nurturing world for his family in their rural Maine compound. In the 1970s, Jim bought 600 acres of wild land. He transformed it into a homestead, building homes and infrastructure for himself and his children. Today, Jim lives in an underground home of his own design, a cozy, ingenious space powered by the land he shaped. And his legacy continues—his son Dustin is now crafting a home inside a reclaimed 98-foot-tall industrial pipe, high above the trees, complete with its own zipline. This one is a keeper. We really hope you have the time to watch this repost. Learning bliss guaranteed.
