Sometimes the stonemason needs a break from stone stairs, stone walkways and retaining walls. Heading 60 miles off the coast of Connecticut to fish for some tuna today. Long day on the water, but if the weather holds we should bring in some fresh sashimi.
A set of beautiful stairs combining a few different stone types.
There are many situations when working on stone isn't a good idea. Lightning storms come to mind. When it's so cold you can't hold the hammer.
But perhaps the most critical time is when the weather is absolutely beautiful, but it's Friday night and you promised to take your wife and dauther to the local carnival up the street from Branford in Guilford, CT.
The labor of stonework can continue tomorrow.
