Our Blog: In Praise of Small Doors
http://bbthourblog.blogspot.com/2014/02/in-praise-of-small-doors.html
Shawn and Melissa Rae King share natural building experience and insights. Sunday, February 9, 2014. In Praise of Small Doors. There is magical and there is practical. In the long run, what seems practical initially can prove too narrow, chosen based on a briefly-considered need, then ultimately satisfying an abstraction rather than nurturing the soul. A doorway that nigh forces you to duck when you pass through? Who would choose such a thing? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Back to Home Page.

Our Blog: Cobbing with silty clay soil (A.K.A “Sacramento cob”)
http://bbthourblog.blogspot.com/2014/02/cobbing-with-silty-clay-soil-aka.html
Shawn and Melissa Rae King share natural building experience and insights. Sunday, February 9, 2014. Cobbing with silty clay soil (A.K.A “Sacramento cob”). We love the fact that our tiny cob house has arisen from the soil of our own yard, and the extra dancing is fun! So is carving, not as easy with tougher Oregon Cob. I also don’t mind not being in a hurry. If all this resonates with you, and what you have on hand is silty-clay soil, go ahead and give Sacramento cob a try. Back to Home Page.
