Red Flag warnings by NOAA

for dry thunderstorms along our hills and across the valley. The SB walls are thick enough - I couldn't hear the thunder..

It's already March. We've had an inch and half of rain in the past two days. One leak in a bad window, but everything else looks good!

Getting to be winter

About mid December, perhaps ready to turn on propane stove. In this sb, we only used heat about four times last year.

Water heater blues

After five years, I find out you are supposed to drain your water heater a few times a year. We didn't do that, so of course, yesterday we got a new water heater. The leak, luckily, was in a back wall that's cut into the dirt and so no leaking water seeped into the strawbale. Whew! And btw, if you ever need a plumber in Monterey County, call Alvarez Plumbing, they're the best!

Still working!

Getting our photos together.

Hello!

Here's our new, remastered, strawbale website. We built our strawbale house here in Southern Monterey County California in 2004 and have lived in it since then. The idea for this site is to let you follow along in the planning and construction process and offer resources and ideas for your own SB construction. More to come as I get my act together and get our photos up!

Welcome to Squarespace!

Welcome to your new Squarespace site! Below is a video that shows you how to get started using our system.

The three most important things to keep in mind:

The buttons in the top right allow you to interact with your site in different ways. For instance, the 'A' icon represents content mode, which lets you edit journal entries and other content. The 'Cube' Icon represents structure mode, which lets you add and organize pages. Each mode is explained if you hover on the icon.
You can drag and drop anything on your site. Want to move a page? Enter structure mode and drag the page to a new location. You can even drag pages between columns or from a column on to your top navigation bar. Need to edit a journal entry? Enter content mode and click 'Modify' on the entry you'd like to edit.
Our styles are presets that you can make your own. Entering style mode on the upper right will let you edit any color, width, column arrangement, or banner and more. Most editing is done from the Fonts & Colors tab of the style edtior menu.

Want to remove this entry? Enter content mode by pressing the 'A' on the upper right, then press 'remove' next to the title of this entry.
