Oh wall...

Our magnificent newly rebuilt retaining wall, all thirty-some feet of it, appears to be done. Two of the crew worked today to put back some of the dirt they had taken out to put a drainage area behind the wall, as well as to remove the dirt they have to haul away. I've been examining it from different angles, and from across the street, where I noticed that one of the smaller stones near the top middle portion of the wall resembles a roughly drawn heart. It looks lovely to me.
Galloped through a bunch more of "Shadow of the Wind." No surprises, had it all figured out, but it's still kind of fun. It has a strange bunch of characters. Not sure what the author really had in mind, but he's got a pile of stuff to tie up before the end.
