    Awesome job. You just happen to build in the style I've always preferred, even as a boy. Love the natural look.
    Sometimes I wonder if it's practical to have one's entire driveway look like this instead of black tar or whatever it is.

    Lovely work! What is the natural stone used for the step risers?

      Thank you! For the risers it’s a local rock to the west coast we simply call ‘blast rock’ but it’s a mix of basalt and granite. Comes in a range of colours

      Just so you know, you don't have to say disrespectful things toward Jesus to convey a message. You could have just said, "Amazing, you do beautiful work... Subscribed last week... " and convey the same message without the deliberately-irreverent blundering of writing Jesus' name.
      Seeing that you know enough about Jesus to make a mockery of his name, let me give you a refresher on the subject of your mockery.
      We have all done something wrong in life. We have all sinned. So God came into the world in the form of a man to become a sacrifice that could pay the penalty for our sins. Because we have sinned, we will have to stand before God when we die and be punished for those sins---just as breaking the law will require you to stand before a judge in this life, you will have to stand before a judge in the afterlife. We know this because God told this to us. But God gave us a way to spare us from being punished for our sins, and that is to accept that we are sinners and that Jesus died to pay the penalty for our sins. If we don't do this, then God will have no other choice but to punish us for our sins. Part of that punishment means being sent to hell. Why? It's undeniable that refusing to accept Jesus' sacrifice is indicative of a decision to reject God entirely. Those two decisions go hand in hand, as you demonstrated by referring to Jesus with that depreciative, mock, clownish epithet. If you reject God then you believe that it is better to do your own will instead of God's will, to define right and wrong for yourself instead of accepting God's definition of right and wrong.
      One of these days God is going to remove evil from his world and it's impossible to maintain a perfect world while people who refuse to do God's will inhabit it, and so God will have no other choice but to expel all those who reject him to---let's just say it will be a world that is not perfect. It's because God doesn't want this to happen to anyone that Jesus died to spare us from being sent to that place. And it's because God doesn't want anyone to go to hell that he arranges for everyone to become aware of this (if you haven't been made aware of this before, you have now).
      The reason why time is split into two eras, the BC era (before Christ) and the AD era (anno domini: in the year of our Lord) is that God came down to earth in the form of a man. Jesus is a real man who walked the earth. This is a historical fact. This man inspired multitudes of people to have a change of heart and live righteously. This is a historical fact. This real man is believed to have performed miracles while on earth. The real historian Flavius Josephus alludes to this, and Jesus' own enemies wrote about him in the Talmud, saying that he was an evil sorcerer. They couldn't downplay his actions to that of parlor tricks, they had to brand him as a character that mankind associates with the performance of supernatural acts but identifies as evil; because Jesus actually did perform miracles, they had to portray him as that kind of character. This is a historical fact. This real man Jesus convinced the members of his own family that he is God. This is also a historical fact. Everyone knows who Mary the mother of Jesus is. Why? But you may not know of Jesus' own brother James. He became a leader of a Christian church in Jerusalem. Why? That doesn't just happen.
      Walk up to your family members and try to convince them that you are God. Do this and see what happens. Jesus was able to do it. Now try to convince the members of your family that you were crucified and then rose from the dead. Do this and see what happens. Jesus was able to do it. The events that Jesus brought about and the concepts he shared with the world have served as a bedrock of righteousness and good conduct for mankind. They have solidified a sense of morality all throughout the world and has played a major role in the sustaining of civilizations. Not a minor role, a major role. They are so vital that the name of Jesus and the moral standard he promoted in the Bible has become known throughout the world, so that a generation of people who are oblivious of this can make a mockery of his name, completely unaware of what they are mocking.
      It doesn't matter if you see people blaspheming God in the media and in your social circles, you don't start mindlessly doing as they do. You acknowledge that wrong is still wrong even if a bunch of people start doing it.
      One of the mistakes a lot of people make is believing that the irreverence toward God means that no one holds him dear anymore. So they go with the crowd without thinking and then run into the many people out there who still revere God as one should. Then they are corrected by that person and then get upset and shout, "What's the big deal!" But this happened because the person who was irreverent toward God made the mistake of going with the flow of a corrupt generation. Because doing so has always been wrong, you set yourself up to be corrected. I know that the world has become so corrupt that a lot of people are on edge nowadays, so I'm trying to be gentle as I write this. I'm just trying to do my part to help you understand what you did from a proper perspective. You can react to this with what seems to be the reaction of choice of this modern age--which is to react with scathing vitriol and curses and increased irreverence to punish someone for daring to correct you; or you can do something remarkable, noble, mature and praiseworthy and react to this by trying to understand why the name of Jesus is still cherished by multitudes of people in this age and by a countless number of people throughout the ages.
