After 25 years in the oil industry, Rob retired with a vision. He was going to build [a debt-free home](. With land, some savings, and a wealth of skills, he embarked on a unique project. Rob didn’t just want any home; he aimed for resilience and beauty on his 330-acre farm. Purchasing two old horse barns, he spent nine years melding them into a 4,000-square-foot masterpiece. His home, set on a hill, showcases the elegance of cedar wood from his land, embodying his hard work and connection to nature. The [interior of his home]( is stunning. The details of Rob’s strawbale palace reflect his creativity and engineering prowess. Using straw bales, sturdy wood, and stucco, he constructed a house designed to withstand Oklahoma’s extreme weather. From carved baseboards to wine bottles turned into glass windows, [every element]( bears his personal touch. Despite initial skepticism, Rob proved naysayers wrong. “They just thought I was nuts, thought I was crazy,” he [shared]( with KFOR. Only in the final year did people begin to see the beauty of his vision. Beyond building a home, Rob aims to inspire others towards a debt-free lifestyle, starting with simple steps like picking up a hammer, and this [video tour]( of his house does just that!

The dog's terrified expression contrasted sharply with a grin reminiscent of their dog, Arthur. It was as if destiny had swiped right on their behalf, matching them with this furry doppelgänger. The pup, formerly known as Max and now answering to Wes, was a [bundle of nerves with a backstory]( that could make onions cry. Deciding to adopt him wasn't a choice- it was a knee-jerk reaction to his sad, shivering mug. Bringing Wes home, they watched him go from a trembling furball to a dog with a personality as colorful as a circus parade. And, as Wes shed his cloak of anxiety, a bromance blossomed between him and Arthur. Their connection was so instant, you'd think they'd been swapping stories about their puppy days from the get-go. Alyssa mused they were "the same dog in a different font," sparking a [detective itch]( that led to a DNA test. And when the results came in? Drumroll, please… The DNA test revealed Wes and Arthur were not brothers from another mother—they were actual brothers! This plot twist had Alyssa and Zachary feeling like they'd hit the jackpot on a doggy dating show. It wasn't just [a tale of adoption]( but a reunion of long-lost siblings. It’s a tale of two tails and it’s one of the most endearing things we’ve ever seen on social media! [(Join the Facebook discussion here)]( 💭 QUOTE OF THE DAY "Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” — Albert Einstein 🗿 ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY… Did you know that on this day in [1783](, George Washington thwarted what was brewing to be a coup d'état against the newly formed civilian government? Tensions were high between the Continental Army and the Congress of the Confederation. Army officers feared that the financially strapped Congress could not fulfill its promises to the military. They became increasingly dissatisfied over unpaid wages and worried about their pensions, and they were ready to make their countermove. That's where George Washington stepped in. He gave a speech so passionate and heartfelt that it swayed an army of men. He appealed to their senses of patriotism, reason, and respect for the rule of law. The speech is now known as the [Newburgh Address](. In the 9-page plea to their conscience, he also promised to take up the matter with Congress himself. This was a move that was equally effective, though not as quick in its results. Thus, George Washington thwarted the coup that never was, also known as the [Newburgh Conspiracy](.
