Moving the "rock"

Today was a feat of super-human strength. We had to move the big birthday "rock" (hearth stone) from the garage to the second floor fireplace. To do that required 4 strong men, a "custom" wood gurney and two supervisors (Ken and me) to watch out for corners and walls. There was a lot of red-faced grunting and groaning, but the deed was done, and the hearthstone is in place.

Up and over the banister!














The gurney... like carrying Cleopatra.
