Me working. Yeehaaa!

Well, one corner is close to be finished!!

We are naming it *semiquincentennial* rock! Took all four of us to haul it 20 feet and erect, and we did it on 250th birthday of The United States



Soโฆ after hauling this stone all the way from the back of the property and setting it upright, we realized we had never actually looked at the bottom. Turns out the previous owners left us a pirate message. My next home-improvement project: skull-and-crossbones graffiti removal.
