And The Winner Is …
As August has now finished we have closed the competition for the book of house plans and have drawn the winner. But before I announce the winner I’d like to explain that we have also drawn a runner up and a second runner up in case the winner is not interested in the book.
So without further ado I present to you the winner of the competition:
Terry Gerling
Congratulations and we hope you enjoy the book of house plans and make good use of it. Terry will also be notified of his winning by email.
And I’d like to also say that I liked all comments left by all participants. We did not feel once that a comment was neither civil nor intelligent.
Keep up leaving your great comments.

I am SO excited to find your site. I saw you had visited my and I clicked on your avatar. When I saw STRAWBALE I flipped as I just bought a book title THE STRAWBALE HOUSE, by Steen, Steen, Bainbridge and Eisenberg and I am very excited about it. I’ve not had a lot of time yet to check it out as my work load has been intense. However it is something I’ve wanted to do for years. Over the next few years my sweetheart and I hope to purchase some land and build a strawbale house. I’ve done some construction over the years but never strawbale. As I get more time I am going to look over your site and see what all is here. It looks like a site I will really enjoy and relate to.
Loved what I read here about Freecycle as well. Something I’ve been doing for years and really believe in. Your site is an exciting find; I look forward to reading more as I get down time. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
