[GSBN] Historic Day for Strawbale Construction !!

[Dodson Harper]

This is a really amazing step for all of us in helping to make this world a better place! Many thanks to everyone who has put effort into making these changes to the building codes, I know this was an incredibly long rough road and your perseverance is greatly appreciated.

Congratulations…..I hope your hangover from the celebration is not too bad today!!
