Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
August 29, 2009
The two RV Gypsies explored a very unique house as seen on TV's Weird Homes series |
The house shown below is located across the street from the restaurant seen in the previous page. Looking for a most unique experience? Have a look and meet Radium's most colorful resident and artist, and The Home of a Thousand Faces. |

Because the outside of this
house was so amazing, the two RV Gypsies paid $3 a person to go INSIDE
the house - although it still looked like they were outside even after they got inside the house. |

In Rolf's Art Shop the two RV Gypsies saw hundreds of carvings, from gigantic Chainsaw Sculptures, arrays of clocks to the Abstract, and every piece was completely unique. The two RV Gypsies were totally amazed at the spectacular array of carvings, from the smallest to the largest, each with their own distinct character. His woodcarving has been seen by people around the world and he was featured on the popular TV series "Weird Homes". You'll have to come and see for yourself ... It's Worth the Trip! |

The two RV Gypsies had
fun "getting behind the wonderful carvings" |

Many doors were quite intriguing - so Lee Duquette followed the written directions. Lee got a big surprise every time he opened a door. A video is posted and can be seen by choosing the TOC button above, then choosing Movies/Videos, then Canada Movies. But first, please continue on down to see the photos. | |
Rolf's eccentric appearance may fool many into believing he is something he is not. He is a mountain man with a love for nature and art.Many of his sculptures are done by a unique carving tool - the Chainsaw!Rolf’s pet goats live on the roof of his house and Craft Shop (Although parts of the house did not even have a roof).. Complete with all the amenities, the goats have their own goat chalet, a green meadow, and everything a goat's heart desires, Rolf’s roof provides it all.He lives and does much of his artwork in Radium where he is as well known for his chainsaw sculptures as he is for his unique multicolored hair and style of dress. |

Below - although the picture of Karen Duquette and Mr. Heer did not come out very well, it was still worthy of being posted because it was an honor to meet him. Rolf Heer did all the fabulous carvings shown above and more. He has such a talent and a great sense of humor. | |
Rolf travels during the winter months to such places as South America, Asia, Central America and of course Europe where in Austria he continues to do his woodcarving. |
