                Thanks Greenman - It has been a much larger project than I anticipated, but very rewarding along the way!

                  Today we (my 18 year old son and I) constructed the buttresses for the entrance arch pillars. We used concrete block and filled the cores with Sakrete Maximizer. We then poured a 3" vermicucrete (5:1 ratio) between the pillar and block.

                    We will cover the block with stone veneer - and top it off with travertine tile.

                      That's going to look great when you're finished. Nice progress.

                        Thanks - if it ends up looking like what I have pictured in my mind, I guess it will be okay!
