Nice stacked stone job. Looks appropriate for the setting.

Re: My New Stone Walls

Regarging the redid job -Amazingly sharp edges and corners for the stone used. Selection for use on the tops and corner must have taken some time.

The clean lines accentuate the rectangular layout.

Looks great.

Re: My New Stone Walls

Thanks for the compliments. And let me clarify, when I say I did, I mean my guys. They are a talented bunch! If you see the rocks sitting up the hill from the steps. That's next, but I need to get the machine in here as those are huge!
