Another Fine Day
One is a shot of the first wall all closed up in the garage. The other photos give you an idea of the yurt taking shape. I have to square off the sides of this wall, fasten the other wall together and the make the door before I can lash it all into a complete circle. I underestimated the number of rods so I'll have to buy more hardwood to finish the second wall. I'm thinking to help with cost I might use doug fir for the ceiling posts. By the way, for the language buffs, the wall is called a Khana (pronouced "Haan"). I will introduce more terms later.

Corey just informed me that the Turkish word for "foreign" [yurt-disin] literally translates to "out of the yurt." Yogurt also is derived from yurt - 'a yak's milk food made at home' is the literal translation.
"Right on!" from Doha.
