Work continues, somewhat slowed by lots of rain, not to mention other obligations. Justin is having fun on the exterior . . .
while continuing with the mundane block-laying on the interior.
I'm loving this look.
Meanwhile, cleanup continues --
sifting through the piles of ash and discovering sad artifacts.
For those who asked after the big hydrangea that blooms so extravagantly, I'm happy to say she's alive and apparently undaunted.
If only our beloved country can survive the current regime-- its corruption, its shredding of norms, its attack on the environment and our national parks, its irresponsible and cruel policies--as well.

Where there’s life there’s hope they say. But I don’t have a lot of the latter — and maybe not the former too for all I know. 🙂
Great to see how this new building is rising literally from the ashes. I like the stonework and bricks on the exterior. It will welcome any visitors, or himself as he goes to work for many years. Yes, we Americans must be diligent these days to avoid being manipulated by the Tea Party GOP, which has honed its craft maliciously, as well as the master impeached crime lord.
What a diligent and talented worker Justin is! This is a reminder of how much environment forms us. If your sons had grown up in a city apartment, Justin wouldn’t have the slightest notion how to build a barn. Or any need to know, of course. 😄
I am hopeful that there is not another as corrupt as our current POTUS. In spite of what he is doing, I desperately hope no one else is so void of scruples or respect for the office. I'm sure the barn reconstruction is bittersweet. I love the stone.
