We were helped by folks from the physical plant at Centre College. David Robertson alerted them. They rolled back the tarps we laid down the day before and swept the slab. Donald Good, grounds superintendant from Centre College was our guardian angel. He kept coming by and checking on us to make sure everything was OK. The  Presbyterian Church of Danville supplied the de-icer and snow shovel!

17° Fahrenheit  with a breeze. We thought it was cold the day before! 

Bottom center of this image is a thermos of fresh, hot tea brought to us by the guardian angel of this Labyrinth, Shelley Richardson from The Elmwood Inn Tea Room. http://www.elmwoodinn.com  I've never tasted such excellent tea! Not only did it warm our bodies, it warmed our hearts.

Robert's lunation cutting is second to none! That ice just won't go away!

Detail of a trefoil in the Rose, intersected by one of the joints between the sandstone blocks.

The sun is out! Our cutting is done!

I got to walk this pattern before I left for Asheville. There is something very grounding about walking on sandstone. If you ever get to Danville, this is one pattern you won't want to miss walking!

He set up a small tent to keep the painting area warmer and dry.

A pure Chartres pattern would have space between the turns as narrow as the wall width.
