Wild Flower Ledge - 46

Another picture of our stonewall construction. The big stones are 65 pounds and the little ones are 25 pounds. I figure we used about 500 of the big ones and 1500 of the small ones. When you build a wall it means you lift each stone on an average, 5 times. That means we have lifted about 340,000 pounds of stones. If you look at the picture of the Power Wagon you will see that I wear a back brace to keep from getting injured. It works. The wall now extends around the corner all the way across the front lawn for additional 80 feet.
