More Hip Than Hippie - Green Building (Part 2) (AKA Hair of the Dog Episode)
In this episode we celebrate Dori's Birthday, taste some more beer, and read some more great listener emails. We also take a closer look at our first green building core value - passive systems. We are joined on the patio by Val's cousin-in-law Jill (blame her for the rap idea!).

Beer of the Day: Raging Rapids Ale from the Feather River Brewing Co. This one got the first ever 6 hips! It's got to be a winner!

Dori's Halloween Fun Finds: Halloween tips from Frugalfun.com. Cavity free trick-or-treat ideas.
And a great Pumkin Seed Roasting recipe from Earthyfamily.com.

Val's Podcast find: The Free Lunch Show with Nate and Di. Make sure to go and take a listen. If you stop by their website make sure to tell them you heard about it on More Hip than Hippie.
