Renewal 2010
Saturday, February 27, 2010
Just writing down a few thoughts now that we have entered into 2010. I am now back spending time pursuing my ambitions with Divine Construction LLC and am interested to hear what everyone else is up to? The natural building networks seem very quiet these days so let's get some talk going again between us. I am pursing the plasterwork once again these year as well as contributing to some design work in the natural building world. Does anyone want to help me put together a meeting to pull us together for a social?
all the best,
Eric Nelson

Prep day in Dodgeville

Update on the Timberframe Booth from this morning. Bryan, Alex, myself and a new friend Jake were able to convene out at Bryan's shop this morning to have a look over of the Booth from last year's Earth Day Event. We decided to hold off on reworking any of the joinery until the morning of this year's Event and simply re-stacked the timbers out of the way in Bryan's driveway. I am hoping that we have better success with the auction of the timberframe this year and I am working the promotion of it starting right now. Please help out by forwarding the coming poster about the Timber Frame auction once I get it posted. Thanks all, Eric J.
