Classy chicken coop in South Dakota

Email we received this week:
Lloyd,
I enjoy your blog and am so excited that you're putting together a new book on tiny houses (Apr 12 post)! When I saw the mention of chicken coops, I remembered the photo I took at my Aunt & Uncle's farm out in South Dakota.…I believe this was actually a brooding house; it had not been used in years, and when I walked inside, sunlight streamed in through the windows…It was beautiful, and I thought such a unique structure for chickens! I badly wanted to have it sent home to Michigan for my own hens. Alas, I settled for the photo and memory.
You probably have enough photos, but thought I'd send this along anyway.  And I wanted to Thank You for your amazing books.  I just got Builders of the Pacific Coast about a month ago (Home Work is still my fave tho).  I love looking at the photos and am so amazed at the creativity and ingenious designs.  Totally inspiring.  In 2006, my husband and I bought some land near Mora, NM, and we plan to retire early in the next few years and build our own small home (off the grid). Your books have given us ideas and inspiration to get creative and incorporate our own unique hand-made designs.…
