That's some awesome work right there! I wish I could do that. We could really use the curb appeal of something like that. Nice job!

That's some awesome work Micah. The last couple of years we are getting way less custom work and more necessity replacement, I miss the custom stuff. Your retaining wall project is nicer than the many windowed house it surrounds.
