In Postcards from Buster season 2 episode 8, titled "Homes Sweet Homes", Buster Baxter sets out on a new adventure to explore different types of homes across the United States. From a cabin in the woods to a mobile home in Arizona, each family's home has its unique characteristics.
Buster starts his journey in Rhode Island, where he meets the Wetherbee family living in a beautiful Victorian house. The Wetherbees take him on a tour of their home, showing him the various rooms and explaining the history behind the architecture of a Victorian house. Buster is fascinated by the details, including the intricate moldings and the grand staircase leading to the upper floors.
Next, Buster travels to the mountains of Colorado to visit a family living in a log cabin. The cabin is completely self-sufficient, with solar panels providing power and a well supplying water. Buster learns about the importance of living sustainably and how it can benefit both the environment and the family's budget.
Buster then heads to Louisiana to visit a family living in a shotgun house, a traditional style of home that is long and narrow. The family explains the history behind the shotgun house and how it became popular in New Orleans. Despite its small size, the family has decorated the space creatively and made it cozy and comfortable.
In Arizona, Buster visits a family living in a mobile home. The family explains that living in a mobile home allows them to travel and explore different places while still having their own home on wheels. They take Buster on a tour of the community park where their mobile home is parked and show him the different amenities, including a pool and clubhouse.
Finally, Buster travels to the Pacific Northwest to visit a family living in a yurt, which is a circular tent-like structure often used for camping but also as a permanent residence. The family explains how they built the yurt and how it is a great option for those who want to live a simpler and more minimalist lifestyle.
Throughout his journey, Buster learns about the different types of homes that people can live in and how each one reflects the unique needs and lifestyles of its occupants. He gains a new appreciation for the diversity of living arrangements and how everyone can make a home sweet home, regardless of its size or shape.
