Matts Myhrman heads up the building a small straw-bale dome. (You can see other straw-bale domes and vaults at the Daniel Smith & Associates Architects site, not to mention the Jakubal Straw-Bale Vault section.)

The dome is completed, and the Republicans come to check it out. (Seriously, that's Roscoe Bartlett with his back to the camera. To his left are Matts Myhrman, David Eisenberg, and Darren Port. Can't remember who the guy with the umbrella is, but he came with Roscoe.)

The straw-bale octagon was there before the Colloquium. It's the Potomac Region Solar Energy Association headquarters. Joe McCabe headed up the project. Turn the page for another shot of this structure.
