Now I know you’ve all been dying to learn how to make adobe bricks and then construct (hopefully) permanent structures out of them – yes ?
Right, well, I wasn’t so sure – so here’s a photographic tour of my training group making a greenhouse out of adobe. 
Adobe is made of water and mud, y basta ! Adobe bricks are made by shaping wet mud into large, preferably flat bricks that are then dried and rotated for several days.
Then you need trusty volunteers to help you make your masterpiece ! 
Amazingly enough each brick is held together by mud and then pounded down with whatever is handy (rocks or fists do well). 
But please be careful where you put the mud – “as clean as mud” . . . well it starts to take on a new meaning – you just never know what’s in there, 
Kevin & Seth found a cow skull, and someone else found a scary lookin spider
ugh. 
Watch out though – each brick weighs about 15–18 pounds (maybe more, I’m guestemating). 
Like any 
job it’s best to have LOTS of people to help ! But don’t forget all projects need a photographer ! 
Celebrate the teamwork,
and don’t forget your water
bottle or your hiking shoes 
for the walk home !!
