Many of us are lucky to live where natural stone is plentiful. Whether flat or rounded, granite, sandstone, or limestone, a stone wall made out of what’s local looks great because it is in keeping with the natural landscape. This dry stone wall was built without mortar. At its end, a ruin-like window seems to erupt from a sea of plantings.
