The First Workshop of the Season...

My beautiful daughter doing the catwalk on the wet cob wall...

How many cobbers does it take to put in a window?

Seems like the answer is two...

Willy Willow takes a break in the shade...

The arches begin to take shape...

It all begins at the source...with a little fetch to keep it fun!

...and the first workshop for my daughter!  I was thrilled that she could finally be part of a weeklong workshop and at the tender age of 9, cobbed throughout when she wasn't preparing our tasty snacks.  Actually, I exaggerate since she was also the official photographer (hence the lack of photos of her):

As you can see the first window of the main house was installed, as well as the double door.  Excluding my daughter, our average age was late '50s and you can see how much Fast Cob! did.  We even "experimented" with slower cob and utilized the straw bales as benches to help our older bodies.  And despite the rainy last day, we had a blast with talent night and ended up with limericks to remind us all of the virtues of cob.

It's (the arch) is getting closer...

Enter...the new door frame!

Plastering naturally...even with cow poo!
