It's starting to look like a building and not just a mess of wood and straw! You can see most of it in this picture. The bales fit nicely around the poles and the poles keep them in place. The one corner with out a pole has rebar chunks thru it to keep it pinned together better.
The front wall!! Window and door are in place and bales surround most of it. I need to make mini bales for the gap between the window and door. At this point I was doing, and had done, most of the bales while Papa worked on doors and windows and all things wood. He did help me get a few high bales up. But I also had a couple of buckets that I used stacked together to give me some height.
Inside view. Papa swept the floor and boy did that ever change the look! Straw covered the floor before.. Actually straw is everywhere at this point! *STILL IS!! :)
The back corner. The wood stove you see will be in that corner.
