Making a ruin
See album called Making a Ruin. We are surrounded
by ruins. There is a town west of us, or rather
what remains of, Shilo. We have 3 major pueblos in
our backyards and even on the preserve we have
ruins. So Bill and I decided to build one in our
front yard. New Mexico magazine ran an article on
making your own adobes so Bill made a frame and we
have been experimenting on differernt mixes to
mold our bricks. So far we have made 2 batches and
both seem to have dried well. I will post more
pictures once we really get going.
