For me, that would have been THE "selling factor" (I get to see deer, blue jays, woodpeckers and all sorts of other critters, without ever leaving my own kitchen, with its lace pillow and easy access to the electric kettle for my tea-making <g>). I tend to think of myself as not being much "into" workshop homework but have noticed that, wherever there's an option of working past the "normal hours" (I am *definitely* not someone likely to show up *before* the "normal hours" <g>), I tend to grab it and get much more done as the result. I just don't like to haul all my equipment back and forth between the room and the classroom and don't like to work in the room (cramped, bad light, et al).
