So...we have a plan. *evil laugh*
We (Krista and Karen) are going camping this weekend. If the weather remains vaguely icky, there will not be a campfire ban, and I got permission from the event organizer to build the oven and fire it at the event (in a campfire pit).
Up sides:
-don't have to haul stones to Sooke.
-can spend a whole weekend building the thing and baking bread in it.
-can get some input from other experimental archeologists who might have done this before!
Down sides:
-probably not going to be able to transport it afterwards - will probably have to destroy it.
-dependent on campfire ban.
-will really suck if it's raining.
-can't bake bread for class.
-will have to find mud on site to hold the thing together...probably. I don't relish mucking around goldstream with a bucket of mud.
At any rate, it should be interesting.
I will have to remember to charge my camera and such first though, as we'll have to video log this stuff.
Um yup. That's all for now.
-Karen
Have fun camping and building that fabulous oven !
