OMG…….I had forgotten all about the yurts!! That’s not as big as the one I had to try to assemble……..where was that? out at the fairgrounds? I can’t remember. But I know everyone else was off doing stuff, and I had to do it on my own. Hmmm, has a certain cartoonist been reading our comments?

Their yurt may appear small on the outside (to avoid zoning issues) but on the inside.

Ah… that looks like one from the Monkey’s Turdmunkistan Imports Spring 2012 catalog….
I believe he sold a lot of yurts in March and April.
The Tardis interior, as shown by x_tech, was a design option…. pretty expensive, but adds a lot to the comfort level.
Hmmm…. I do stay a lot at the salon. If I can’t afford a dream house here on Ballard St, maybe I should consider adding a yurt to the back yard…
I do own the property, but it’s a tiny lot….
plenty of room, though, for a small, wine-colored Turdmunkistani wool yurt…
with a 3 bedroom 2 bath interior….
dining room….
maybe a small library…
Hey Monkey….. about your current inventory….
