The Stone Stairway

 
Shhh, don't tell.  Santa is bringing Dr. W a garden goodie.
 
We started with a little tick-infested hill.
 
I talked to a local landscaper, Jason Moles. It turned out that Jason had planned all of the existing gardens at Rattlebridge. 

 
 
Jason had been a Master Gardener at Cheekwood Botanical Gardens in Nashville.
He outlined a long-term plan for Will's garden, beginning with bluestone steps.
 
 
In November, workmen and heavy machines arrived.
 
 

 
Bluestone slabs were cut to fit the stairs. 
 
My GC's assistant, Medana, passed along the latest photo of the steps.
