As of 12:15 pm the between-column rock walls are complete to the stage where reinforcing concrete has to be poured behind the below-grade portions before further stone work can be done.  Let the celebrations begin!!!!  Here’s a picture of the completed section (7 feet high by 3 feet wide) containing the electrical box. No FBF all morning!  After lunch transitioned from mason to carpenter.  As you can see, with the tailgate of a pickup and a few quick clamps, voila, you have a mobile carpentry shop.  Don’t know whether the Deep Woods Off attracted or repelled the FBF; was too busy sawing and assembling footer forms for the auxiliary shed storage area to pay them any mind, though there were lots of them about.  Couldn’t afford to restrict my visibility with the beekeepers hat, so just ignored them.
