      Great stuff. I build a bit with timber at home but it is all pre-cut. I’d love to work on something from the logs up. You still see the occasional cabin being built like that here.

          This is was I was doing for the past 17 days. The Saturday after Thanksgiving we flew to Paris. Went to Montmarte and bought a painting by the below artist. Also saw 2 US artists painting Paris street scenes which is something I would like to do.

                Then left Paris on the day of the strike, on an uncancelled Eurostar. Went to a friends 60th birthday party and met some nice new friends. Then on Monday 9 December, we spent a great day in Gosport, not an oxymoron, Spent the afternoon / evening drinking lots of wine with the Padmores, then @Giles made a great Chicken with sundried tomatoes dinner. All in all a great day.

                      Happy to hear you found it interesting @neph93 and @Aetas .

                      Next year we may tackle a bigger challenge as we attempt a shed for the farm machinery using as much local resources (palms) as possible. That’ll be a 20 by 25 meter structure approximately, with a 4 to 5 meter height.

                      So you’ll have an opportunity then @Aetas !

                      The journey is the objective.

                                    Well, that's certainly more spacious, and it's got free WiFi…

                                          We’ve wrapped up our oven-roofing project by laying 50-year old repurposed tiles on the hollowed palm trunks. The tiles have a mortar bed made of mud, cow dung and straw; all three materials abundant at the ranch!

                                          You can see the mortar, yellowish, at the bottom end of each tile in the following pic.

                                          Inside view…

                                          …now, everyone is saying we need to build a new oven to match the roof...

                                          The journey is the objective.
