		<title>New Wall</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve started a new wall just outside of downtown Asheville, at a doctor&#8217;s office. A circular drystone wall will surround a maple tree and create a new planting bed. It&#8217;s a fun challenge building on this tight a radius.

		<title>Ironwoods: Ready for iron</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back to Chapel Hill for a couple of days recently. The stone structure is finished. It waits patiently under wraps for the ironwork. Here&#8217;s a close up of a wall section. There are two marbles hidden in the wall, gifts from Ethan and Logan. Sadly, the marbles aren&#8217;t visible in this view. I posted a [...]]]></description>
