Way north bass guy Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 I’m a fourth generation stonemason, been doing it full time for 25 years now. I’ve actually worked on several properties where all four generations of my family have done stonework on over the years. When I was a kid I used to go to my dads jobs ( most are on the lakes around here for cottagers), and fish all day off the dock while he and his crew worked. I’d have lunch with them and then head back to the dock to fish. When I was 13 he told me to put down the rod and pick up a trowel. Worked for him in summer all through high school, then full time once I graduated. He retired about 11 years ago, and I’ve run my own business since then. I work by myself, taking on all kinds of stonework projects, as well as installing/inspecting wood stove/chimneys for insurance companies. It can be tiring work some days, but I love it ( don’t need to go to the gym either ?). I’ve worked for some pretty high profile people over the years, had some work featured in several magazines, and have never had to advertise for more work. The bonus part is that many of my projects are on islands in the summer, so sometimes I get to “sneak away” a touch early to fish my way home at the end of the day. 12 Quote
