Wow, England? And I thought all those crazy Canadians traveled a long way to party with you!
But maybe on the ride. Let me know.

LOL, there is a guy in Abreojos named Chutin Arce who did it for 500 pesos a meter a few years ago. Making a 10 meter wall 3 meters high would cost
$15,000 back then. Not a bad deal at all. Doing it for yourself, your right, it makes it priceless!

Shari, can you give me the directions/details...Looks like I may very well be on unpaid time off in February...perhaps in late Feb. I'd love to make
it, Several years ago I was at the lagoon with the Green Tortoise and would love to do it again and visit Asuncion for fishing and all. I may be
coming down alone. Car is a Prius, not a lot of extra space.. but the last time Mary and I brought down some things. So I'll do what I can (at
least Maple Syrup, sushi rice and Nori). U2U me

Shari, Juan's rock work looks fantastic. It's finally coming along. Lots and lots of hard work collecting the rocks, sorting them out and then
placing them so nicely with perfect presentation. WOW!
Russ, I cannot believe that beautiful rock house was stuccoed over... wow.

Shari, that looks great. We are planning on doing a very similar look to the exterior of our place we are building right now.
Post more pictures as the project progresses...

thanks everyone...yes...rock...well....rocks! Some stick rock on the outside but this place is all rock...the whole wall inside and out. It is very
tricky to get it nice and flat and pleasant to look at with a combination of colour and sizes. I am learning to appreciate the nuances of rock
work....I always did like the Flinstones!

Beautiful, can't wait to see the finished product. Btw, that's a Juan rock wall in the background of my avatar. And, of course, "Baja Lucy Big dog
who has immigrated to the states" on my lap. Shari....we love you...what else can we say but, thanks.

Shari I wish Tim was there helping Juan right now and learning how to do that. Looking real good.
Speaking of rocks...how did Vgabndo's (Perry) rock art fair? I loved that.
