Central Ohio Quarry
Jun 15, 2004

Most of these shots are taken in the "discard" pile at a wholesale stone yard/fabricator in Central, Ohio. As they say; "one man's junk is another man's treasure". Lots of interesting stuff, great colors, great potential in use as art in the garden.

Kokosing River
Oct 18, 2005

A neat setting along the Kokosing. The way it was put together so rustically makes it perfect for the site.

Ohio Memorial shrine
Jun 28, 2007

Right outside Loudonville, Ohio on state rt. 97 sits this shrine to fallen soldiers from the great state of Ohio.

Beautiful sandstone work from the late 1940's. The work at the front door and the windows is particularly awesome.

1st 18 from '07, next 14 from '08

OldeWoode stoneyard
Geolocation
Feb 20, 2008

Salvage and reclamation yard in Malvern, Ohio.

Lots of wood from old barn structures, and sandstone from old foundations.

Street pavers from old digs.

Ask the guy working at corner about Locust post /beams(for arbors/pergolas) and he was "non-helpful" to say the least. Too bad I think there's a good market out there for "character" pergola/overhead structures.
