One Day to go before the build starts



Its the early hours of Easter Monday 2007, our digger man Ivor arrives Tuesday 10th April 2007, he will start clearing the top soil, marking out the house footprint and then dig out the footings. I cleared our garden today and had to take our childrens trampoline down. We may be able to put it back up once the top soil has been shifted around.

This is so exciting!

Did you see our pictures of the houses and churches carved from inside the rock in Turkey? They reminded us of cob. They included organically shaped tables with benches, alcoves and sleeping areas.

We thought of you guys when we saw them.
