I am taking a break today while partner Kurt is away picking up our glass and framing wood for the house.
Season Three is upon us and the progress has been amazing. Before I go into to many details about how all is going this year I want to take a moment to thank all of our amazing guest volunteers that have traveled to the West Kottenays to help us with our amazing project.
Names I recall so far from Season Three are as follows. David Moor from Austria. Sean and Fanny, Taylor, Marly, Sam and Rona from the UK. Eli from Montreal Quebec, Anne Martin from Munich. also last but not least is the unforgettable Lawrence from everywhere. You are simply amazing and have been so generous with your gifts of giving within the work on our place as well as all your amazing contributions to the menus, laughs and wisdom. You will be and will continue to be a huge part of the Pavo Tribe, world wide Earthship Warriors.
In conclusion I just have to mention what has been accomplished this year. Our timber framed posts and beams are 75% done with the addition of rafters throughout and a dormer which completes the look of the loft bedroom. Also the cement footings are shy of only two remaining to be poured, with three bond beams poured as well. Oh and yes two more huge accomplishments on record. The back laundry/bathroom room tire wall is almost finished as well as the start of packing in and smoothing out our first wall, which is what we fondly named our Marly wall. There will be more pictures to follow as I very much wanted this years Pavo Tribe to be highlighted amongst the pictures attached with this blog entry.
Well this day is almost complete and I find myself feeling very rested and I feel very grateful as my mind, body and soul feel calm. Wow what a feeling.
PEACE OUT Patty!!!
