Currently on my annual pilgimage to Vancouver Island to visit my partner’s parents. I took the picture below at the Coombs Country Market, AKA “Goats on the Roof” A fantastic market with plenty of items including western salmon jerky.

Many of the buildings in Coombs are constructed using round log framing with plank roof decking and earth roofing – rubber membrane, drainage layer, dirt and grass. Definitely one of my favorite building styles and well suited to the moist climate on Vancouver Island.
