Spring Equinox - Full Circle

The footprint for the "Solstice" dome was drawn on December 22, 2015 winter solstice, which falls a day later in 2015 and Spring Solstice falls on March 20th a day earlier than usual. Today, synchronistically we closed the dome that we started on the first day of winter, Solstice. This dome has always been about (re) connecting to nature and the great mystery. Creating special magical details and allowing magic to happen in a magical place.

Start of the day, meshing up the whole.
Look Up, the dome is CLOSED!
All 3 eggs hatched!
Say man, you got a worm? It'd be a whole lot cooler if you did!
Cholla Cactus, helluva place to build a nest.
Status report, The dome has been foamed!
Closer look at the dome foam!

Jon and Raquel gettin' their plaster on!
80/20 (%) Earth/Cement Plaster going on the foam.
Raquel seems pretty comfortable up there!
Ooh La La! Nice shirt, Abra Kanabra!
 First look at jars after plaster!
Foam sealed the top porthole.
 Small portholes for the pipe windows looking good!
 Oh Yeah! 
 Plastering is a new passion of Raquel's.
 Nice shot of the jar placement.
Chapel O' Love.
 Trash Treasure!
Look who's back! Piper, the Half Coyote!
Piper, the Half Coyote was hit by a car, but the driver took her to the hospital and adopted her. She likes (ed) to chase cars.
Jon does not need gloves for plastering, this time...
Sunset in Landers, ya know
Plastering the top!
Sunset time! Plastering the top.
Another view, plastering the top!
