Yesterday's open house was a whirlwind. I'll admit that I spent the morning fairly certain that no one would come- the weather was weird, Sundays are lazy, and I sometimes lack social confidence.

But you, tiny house people, did not let me down. At exactly 12:58, a throng of people appeared, trudging through the mud. Children, farmers, urbanites, college officials- an incredibly kind and interesting crowd filled the house from start to finish. There was even a line outside! 

One lovely lady brought me daffodils; another family brought me a cake from a favorite bakery. Everyone brought questions, cameras, and positive reinforcement. I wish I'd taken more pictures, but I was so busy answering questions that I didn't get a chance! Here's a few photos I snapped: 

Some of the first attendees- laughs all around

No problem getting up to the loft 

Tumbleweed staff member Adam Gurzenski even sent his parents over!

If you attended and took more pictures, please send them! 

Per my mom's request, I also started a guestbook. It was a great way to track where people were coming from- I had guests from Connecticut, New Hampshire, and all over Massachusetts, including Boston! Thanks so much to those who made the journey- it was a blast having you all around!
