Just before the Earth Day Dallas event, I joined a group called the DFW Tiny House Enthusiast, and the first meetup was occuring during Earth Day Dallas. Due to monster sized crowds, I didn't get to meet anyone.

Wow! Look at that mob!
The crowds at Earth Day Dallas are actually tentacle lines with no
visible ends. I decided to forego the tour since, as Bill informed me,
I actually already live in a tiny house. |
I also didn't realize that the group relied on volunteers to show the house, until I figured out that DFW Tiny House Enthusiast also had a Facebook page which is much more active than their Meetup page. Once a call went out for volunteers at Taste of Dallas, I put my name in the pot and spent most of Sunday answering questions and counting people as they approached the tour areas. The volunteers in my area were responsible for 3 larger tiny homes 189 - 360 sq. ft. But the most exciting part was meeting the people, especially fellow volunteers who were really cool, awesome, engaging and like-minded.
There's something rejuvenating about being around people who share the same interests and passions. I'm looking forward to the next adventure this weekend in Austin at the Kasita Repeata Meetup.
