    It is a wonderful melding of history in action, and modern day reality. The organization of skill set, hard labor, and the “joys” of hot work with biting flies, and outdoor cooking gives a great sense of satisfaction. It is coming along beautifully! I wonder if you will have a celebratory meal, dance, or get-together when it’s all finished? Thanks for sharing your journey, and making me hungry with your lovely looking meal. Best wishes!

    I come from an Irish family, so I can say with surety that you gotta keep an eye on venison soaked in wine, chilling in the stream. Those schemers can smell it from a mile away ,😀
    I gotta say I’m more than a little surprised at how many reeds those roofs need. Heck of a job.

    Julius, I'm so thrilled that you're learning to focus more on local sustainability rather than preaching full veganism as a one-size-fits-all solution. Which is not to say that veganism is bad, just that you have to take a holistic approach to your local conditions, and I appreciate that you're doing the work and staying informed. 🙂

    I know it's not traditional, but to protect all that work, I'd be spraying Siloxain, (not sure I spelled that right) we used it to protect our chimneys when I was a chimney mason. Water just flows off, an it lasts about 10 years before needing to be reapplied. Probably get skin cancer but I use it to water proof most of my gear. It's ment for masonry an concrete, but works well with other materials.

    I'm wondering how long this would have taken back in the day. Because whoever was making it would have needed somewhere to live pretty quickly. I wonder if they just got a whole village together to build it in a few weeks, kind of like an old fashioned barn raising or something. The main thing that brought this to mind is when you covered it with a tarp, which of course they wouldn't have had back when.
