@S_tatsu410 Come to pescadero. Very nice rides in the mountains between la Paz and Cabo

@TheLastFarm Cool might have to build one of these things

@col_a_buendia What town is this

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@shagbark_hick My grandma used to make this. Baked in a casserole dish with canned tomatoes and white American cheese on top. Amazingly delicious

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@Empty_America Of course but this would be for the love of the game. See how things were in the good ole days

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@Empty_America Been thinking about the Pueblo style roofs lately. I’d like to make one and see how it handles a monsoon rain. Foot or two of clay on top of some THICK round vigas

@Antonioatfarm Dream sink!

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@col_a_buendia Do it

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@bronzebust Possible in theory but to the open minded traveler every place is enticing for some reason or another. Not sure I could name ten countries I wouldn’t want to visit. But if I had to choose, yeah minor pacific islands or parts of subsaharan Africa probably get the cut

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@bronzebust Id be curious to know what your least travelworthy country list looks like

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@benjlaufer I am doing this with the *build* of my restaurant. The constraint is locally sourced materials for the structure itself. More challenging hes but also more fun and more interesting.

[BAJADOBE (QUICKLIME MAXIMALIST) @bajadobe]

@Antonioatfarm Approximately how old is this house? Are there many adobe structures in your egion?
