Cool As An Igloo

One of the back roads we travel to reach civilization is home to a very cool house.
Literally. It's an igloo.
OK, it's not made of ice, but it's designed from that concept.
From a distance you wonder if your eyes deceive you at first.

Nope, it's sure round.
Are those solar panels on top?
Why, yes they are. And why not?

What's better than an igloo house?
Why, an igloo house with an attached igloo garage, of course.
Oh, and it also looks way neater in the snow. :D

Are you sure they're solar panels and not just sky lights?

I guess they could be. I just figured they were from seeing designs/plans for other geo dome homes and most had panels that contributed to their "green-ness".
They could very well just be windows/sky lights.

I've seen one of those Geodesic Domes survive Katrina's 180 mph fury, with no damage.

Only one other structure in the entire parish, (like one of your counties) survived without damage.
