Pap is putting real rock on a new house in Whitecourt - the picture is of the back of the house. All the pillars are rock and the deck face as well as the fireplace on the deck and the gable end. The house is almost half rock. The front of the house is getting a pile of rock too, I will take a picture of that when they are busy there. Took a picture of the girlies when we went to visit as well - they were so impressed with Opa!! Also a picture of the two helpers, Betty is the cement mixer and Jesse Van Laar is the official rock cutter. Laurie is also still helping pap. The fireplace is inside this house, pap did that this spring already, he still has to put rock on the face of the mantel. Can you imagine, there are only two people living in this house? Unreal!! I am always so proud of pap when he does this work, because he is so artistic.
