I don't claim to understand how it operates, or even where one might stick that loaf of bread to the left in to bake it. I bet it's way cheaper to build than an actual brick oven, though...and just imagine how delicious that bread would be, having been baked in dirt! And you will note yet another plaque at the left: This one concerns Ethan Allen and the Gallant Band of Patriots he led in the Revolutionary War: Click here to see it.
