Next Adobe Class

I am excited to head down to Bosque, NM to attend the second of two classes put on by the SWSA school. This will be a hands on class, where we will have a earthblock press (AECT manufacturer) available. We will be covering rubble trench foundations, CEB building, slurry's, running electrical, bond-beams etc. This should be an exciting class. I will be taking great notes and sharing them here.

Kim and I have also been trying to figure out our ultimate plan. After attending the last class I was afraid our first guest house was too big, even though it was small. I was sitting in the hotel and I was thinking "you know, if our first house is a guest house, then it doesn't really need to be much bigger than this room" so......I redid my guest house plans and made it 24x24, which is the same size as the detached two car garage I just built here in KC. I removed the laundry, made the bathroom a little smaller and pulled out the kitchen. Now I am worried that if I get the guest house built, then for some reason I can't build the main house, we won't have everything I need in our first and at that point only house. Decisions, decisions.....
