New Crew



I have  two new additions to the crew. They are sisters from different litters. I have lots of great help around the place now! These are probably the best dogs I have ever been around. Half Australian Sheppard and McNab Border collie with Cataholula mix. Amazing!

Bishop's Storehouse , Leeds, Utah






 Trees had pushed these stone walls out of place. Ken Hadley bought the place and is restoring it. I helped him number, remove and then replace the stones in order to straighten the walls



I did everything except level out the top. The budget did not stretch far enough to get that done, but  maybe next time.


 This is all tuck pointed and this is the present condition of the walls and building as of 2015.

Roy Madison and I added these stone steps and covered the cinder block with stone. It gives it a much better feel and look don't you think? Thanks Ken and Patrica for letting us help you on your old house.

Window Sill


I put a window sill in the bishop's storehouse in Leeds, Utah.

Stone Benches



We quarried, shaped, delivered and set 13 stone benches to Bryce Canyon National Park this fall.

Bryce Canyon National Park



We built a new entrance sign for Bryce National Park on the new bicycle path. The little rock column in the foreground is a camera stand. That is Brad Quinn and Roy Madison in the picture.

Bryce Canyon National Park Multi-use pathway




Bryce National Park has a new multi-use pathway or bicycle path and we helped build the stonework on the project, Here is a retaining wall in front of the lodge. We matched the old wall and created an opening for the new pathway.
