The house takes shape

Finally in the last days of June we buy straw. Wwoofer, Leigh, and I took about 3 weeks to get the walls up to full height.










It could have been much quicker if the house had been designed as a straw bale house, but it was long drawn before the straw was chosen as the ideal material for the moment. However, it's rather beautiful with all it's curves and really worth all the extra work.
