Cob: WA State on SW Olympic Peninsula

[Angela Davis]

Hi,
 
I'm in Seattle, too.  My family and I are just beggining to learn about cob.  We're all really excited about it and would love to build a cob house when we move out of the city in the near future, but my mom's worried about doing anything not to code because she doesn't have it in her to "fight city hall", and my dad just wants to make sure it doesn't look "wierd."  I've been lurking on the list for about a month now.  If anyone out there knows of some cob cunstruction that we could look at in western Washington, especially any on the more traditional looking side, I'd love to find out about it.  
 
Also, if anyone's interested, I saw on their website that the Northwest Ecobuilding Guild is going to be working on building a cob tool shed at the P-Patch on 67th & Linden, near the zoo on July 23.  You can go to  http://www.ecobuilding.org/chap/sea/index.php for more information.
