One Stone at a Time

3rd Week of October

The sun came out Monday morning, and the stone crew came back to work.  I think everyone would like to finish the stone facade this week.  It will be weather-dependent.

Stone work continues above the water table

By Tuesday evening they have almost reached the top of the wall on the east side of the facade.  We were curious to see how much progress would be made on Wednesday.

Wednesday evening - the front Facade stonework makes good progress

As soon as I got home Wednesday I went over to see the progress.  What I didn't expect to see were the columns at the front stoop!

Another view of the stone work in progress

It's hard to see, but the stone lintels above the windows are in place on the right side; and the stonework is all the way up to the roof edge.

It's hard to take pictures at 6:30 pm.  The days are noticeably getting shorter.  And tomorrow might bring more rain.  But any progress is great to see.
