Greetings!
 
I have the summer off before my final year of grad school so we're going to try to get a photo out every day.

This is a snapshot from the East Longmeadow Historical Museum, where you can discover the history of sandstone quarries and gravestone carving. The saw tooth or comb chisels were often used on the back of our local grave markers, the marks they make are obvious once you know the tool that was used to create them.
