Who gave that woman a jackhammer?


We are in the process of building a new reception area! It's right below the wedding stage. This space is going to hold around 12 tables to host 100 guests. We are currently working on clearing the space and leveling it. We are also building rock walls along the edge- by hand of course!

However, working at Hidden Valley Retreat is never as easy as it sounds. As we were leveling the space, we came across a HUGE boulder! Boulders are common on our property, if you've ever seen the Event Center, you would know; we've got boulders built right into the walls! Now we understand why-- those things are hard to break down! We were able to jackhammer most of it , but couldn't get it all. Now we have a permanent addition to the area: a beautiful, natural, white granite boulder to sit on. It matches the event center!

We will be posting many more photos as we make progress, but until then you can take joy in this photo of Fiona jack-hammering away!
