Thatch and mud


Down in the garden, in the old bean patch, Noah and his friend, Aurora, spent an afternoon creating the coolest little earthen home, perfect for a gnome family. One minute they were at the kitchen table beading and the next minute they were gone. I looked around for them and came across the two pre-teens (won't be saying that for long...next month = teenager. holy moly.) planning and building and creating in the garden. Mud and stone walls with twig timber framing? so cool. Thatch roof? heck yeah. Gravel paths and landscaped yard? wow. Very impressed (and proud!)
