[Cob] NBC EASTRaduazo at aol.com Raduazo at aol.comSun Jul 10 08:10:52 CDT 2005
The NBC east was again a wonderful experience. It was not as large or a wild as last years extravaganza, but still very pleasant. I guess the highlight would have to be either raising the 4000 pound stone or raising the timber frame over the dragon oven, but for my part I liked the plastering classes. Not everyone is going to build their own house, but I can almost guarantee that everyone will someday have the opportunity to repair or to build a wall and knowing how to mix and apply earth plasters is a priceless skill. I was also very impressed with the earth floor installed in the ceremonial building. I wish I had been able to do a floor with someone who knows what they are doing before I did my floor. I could have saved myself a couple of mistakes. The best part of the Colloquium though was spending a week with hundreds of people who share the same interests and concerns about the world and the environment. I hope there will be many more colloquiums, and I hope to see more old friends and future friends at the next one. Ed
