Our straw bale home building experience. Sunday, December 31, 2006. Lighting our way into the new year. So, it seems I've become a bit of a Home Depot junky.

Where are all the good designers in this field? We're off today to do a little mudding at the house before we drop by to visit friends in celebration of the new year. Phone n...

Stonehouse Straw House: September 2006

http://stonehousestrawhouse.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html

Our straw bale home building experience. Friday, September 29, 2006. Mudding can inspire a certain amount of mischief, we've discovered. It tends to meld the old with the young and the mud with the tongue (or the back, or the cheek)! It's not unusual to see hand-shaped mud imprints on the back of a fellow mudder - not self-imposed! And, lately, we've even noticed muddy hand prints on a few faces. Posted by Kara at Friday, September 29, 2006. With a little help from my friends. Carolyn and Erroll Hatfield...
