[papercreters] Alpine TX papercrete projects -was- Re: Introducing papercrete

Ok, Ok. There are a good many sites in Alpine, Marathon, Marfa and
Terlingua.(And we keep hearing from others who plan to build). I will
try to photograph and get addresses for the ones I know of or have
heard of. My real-life schedule is pretty hectic at the moment but
over the next couple of weeks I'll bicycle around Alpine and then
drive to the outlying communities with my digital camera and try to
get this info for you. For the past two years, in August, Marathon
has hosted a green fair (not sure exactly what it's name is). Zach
Rabon and Clyde Curry had a papercrete workshop at the first one.
I'll make a point of finding out who sponsored it and find out if it
will happen again next August. If so, this is a great area to see
what others are doing and to get hands-on experience. I'll try to get
all this information for you. We would love to have like-minded folks
from all over come to the Big Bend to learn about papercrete.
