Front Porch posts

The upper part of the posts will be covered with painted wood, but the stone looks great.

The New Chimney!

The guys started on the roof wrapping the chimney in stone. It looks awesome. We will probably have to wrap our old brick fireplace in stone too.

Now that we are on the home stretch . . .
