House of Light and Rain

Erec Toso landed in rural northwestern New Mexico with a job on his hands. He had to finish a house only partly constructed. No weather-proof exterior no septic no wiring no plumbing no insulation no drywall and on and on. Only problem was he was a teacher not a builder. He met some demons -- and some angels -- on his way to a Certificate of Occupancy. This is not a how-to for builders but a series of ruminations on why one would build a place for a body a heart and a spirit more than a little wounded.
