I'm so grateful for Missa, who scanned in these yummy retro images from Houseboat, a book published in 1977 on floating home culture. My dream of owning a houseboat just won't quit. I love this excerpt:
"Nestled at the foot of Manhattan Island. Moored in the heart of Seattle and Vancouver, B.C. Tucked into sun-speckled bayous near Pierre Part, Louisiana. In the midst of Sausalito's 'hip' culture. Houseboats reflect a hedonistic Great Gatsby lifestyle, a homespun simplicity, a mellow oneness with Mother Nature."
