Re: My Christian Church Sign


I'm at home because stone work hurts the body and my aging self needs an office day. I guess I did a bit of important office work also, but mostly, my vagina hurts so I'm chilling.

Re: My Christian Church Sign


Nice detail MM! I can see a lot of time spent shaping and fitting the limestone in that design.It is indeed obvious that you enjoy and take pride in your work.

It is very nice, but appears to be efflorescing something terrible.

If a truck bomb ever heads for your church, it looks like you're well prepared.

Tscar,It is efflorescing as you can see.We've had a lot of rain here lately and the sodium is leaching out. As the weather warms,this will go away.You live in Texas have you seen this stone there?
