At the first 2 outdoor workshops for 2008, put on by the Dry Stone Walling Across Canada, in Canton , on May 17 and 18,  a beautiful new structure was created by walling students coming from as far away as Ottawa and Kitchener Ontario. The weather both days was rainy and cool for the Canadian May 24 weekend, but everyone rallied together to build and complete these two lovely sections of dry stone wall, with a 53 inch wide iron gate installed in the opening (hung on metal pintels imbedded in the wall-end) thanks to everyone who was involved and to Simon for the lovely meals he provided both days. More pictures of the wall will be posted as the grounds around the area are landscaped and the lawn heals over.
