The CF property is located on a sandstone base which is covered by a little black dirt and some sand. So peel back the top just a little and there it is. Sandstone with time and enormous pressure finally emerges as quartz and quartzite over 1000's of years. In between it also produced the limestone blocks that made this wall and many others in the Cannon Falls area. 6 or 7 trips to limekiln hill produced what Dad designed and what I modified. Add acid wash and sitting with a wire brush and electric drill for a week or so that was needed to clean the face and....now just shovel out the topsoil and prepare a grade for next year when I bring 5 tons of Chilton flagstone, at our place in MG, down and set a patio.
