Day 4 = fully slow bo

We felt nervous when told of early river flooding for fear we wouldn't be able to make it to our land tomorrow. We cooked up a delicious dinner and shared it with family and friends. Frank has told us he will meet us at the land tomorrow at 8am and we hope to finish the bale walls and get the roof on. It might just be...

  1. Oh and I forgot to mention the workshop happening downstairs in our huge garage. Drilling, hammering aplenty as window frames and strawbale top plates were created. So yeah, it wasn't all tea and cake eating drinking...

  2. Great idea to be doing some work off site. Must help the spirits lift a little. I hope today brings some sunshiney strawbaling time:)
