Sadly, my knowledge of this close corner of the world is lacking, so when she made reservations to stay in an Earth Ship I began to wonder what we were getting into. To my surprise, our few nights in the Earth Ship happened to be the nicest of any accommodations as well as the least expensive. My surprises didn't stop there. ]]></description>
