Sun., June 12, 2011     “The Giant” visit this unique sustainable home in Pendleton, IN

                                    The Giant (a name excerpted from "one giant leap for mankind") reflects Vic Cook's

                                    philosophy that it's time for people to return to a lifestyle that's in balance with nature.

                                    Unlike many others who have espoused a similar philosophy, however, Cook believes

                                    we can do so without giving up creature comforts. (http://www.giantearthship.com).
