yurt in a greenhouse?

- I would definitely think of having the yurt out of teh green house in the Summer
- If you try the yurt inside, maybe one could think of having the toono (dome) opening connected to the outside one way or the other

Busy finishing to load the groovy truck... and looking forward to meet next week!

Thanks, Yves.

Connecting the yurt and greenhouse may be a challenge with frost heaving, so I think I'd prefer the brief exposure to the elements between structures.

Rather than connecting the toono to the outside I thought that having the chimney act as a summer vent would bring fresh air through the yurt. I'd need the chimney in the winter anyway and it could be removed from the woodstove so that the chimney starts near to the toono height.

We woke up to several inches of snow the other day, so if you could squeeze some warmer weather into the 'Groovy Truck' that'd be appreciated.
