I've been working on cutting a bike / walking trail through our back woods, and have started to build a little bridge across a swampy spot near the cabin.  It's not finished yet, but I wanted to share a picture of the progress.  So far, building the bridge has been easy - but finding, lugging, and arranging the stones that I've used as footings was the killer.  I wanted them to be big enough to not shift once I'd put them in place, which meant that they were at the absolute upper limit of what I can carry alone.  Whew!
