Take your tiny house design workshops to a webinar setting. You could film yourself and put any visuals in powerpoint slides. I think you could increase your participation substantially if the travel factor is taking out. Then, you could also work from home more! :)You could also add the component of building solar panels and hooking them up to the tiny houses. Also, just an idea for your business.

It seems that the houses will heat well and the heat cost be reasonable (I image, the WI would be just a little colder than IOWA with a longer duration of winter.)I'm concerned about leaving the heat on when I have to travel, however. How did you work around that. I have two cats and would have to leave the heat on for them and to keep the water system from freezing. Are the propane heaters that you install safe to leave on when leaving the house, or did you just never leave your house with the heat on??

I kept my house at about 78 degrees F all winter when it was in Iowa, and I spent only about $160 per year on propane.
