A bunch of glacial erratics are a delightful fieldstone wall of 1891-1892, at a church. by Tim Kiser

A bunch of glacial erratics are a delightful fieldstone wall of 1891-1892, at a church.

The erratics were strewn across the Upper Midwest during the Wisconsin glaciation of ~20,000 years ago. Personally I wish the building were something other than a church but oh well.

Oh man, I'd like to have some walls like this as walls for my wonderful house — on the interior and exterior both!
