There is a whole little settlement of these in Taos. An Earthship is a cool house design based on recycled materials (especially tires) and self-containment. This one is the Visitor's Center; the others are private houses. We got there after it closed for the day, though, so we might go back so we can see the inside. You can also see an Earthship (on an island off, I think, Georgia) in the good-but-really-sad film "The Ballad of Jack and Rose". The tires-and-mud wall is an Earthship-in-progress.
Awesome photos! I have printed out a map of the US to follow along with you. It is cold here now...yaaay. The trees are turning colors and leaves are falling with the wind. My favorite time of year...well along with spring and new blooms. Take care and am looking forward to hearing you play the violin.
