Raising a Fallen Obelisk
This weekend my father and I finished raising a small obelisk that sunk, became un-level, and then toppled over in the Evangelical Protestant Cemetery. This project was filmed and then edited into a 5 minute video. The creation of the video was a three part process. A clip from a November 2015 begins the film. Next we begin the restoration project but then realize that we cannot safely finish because the legs on lifting tripod are too short. About 4 weeks later we completed the project when I brought my longer tripod legs.
