There’s also a thread in the archives of this group from last year.

Anyone in the neighborhood is welcome to stop by.  Let me know you’re coming by email to bwaldrop <at> cox.net
or by signing up with the FB event,  
https://www.facebook.com/events/286135491467827/ .

I am also participating in an experiment that will apply a non-toxic coating after the whitewash has cured. 
The goal is to extend the life of the whitewash from 2-3 years to 8-9 years. 

A full report will be written and posted.
