Reply to "What did you do on your layout today?"

Thanks.  It is scratch built.  I first constructed a framework of Masonite and wrapped it with 1/8" thick foam.  It is the foam sold at home improvement stores for insulation under metal siding.  I carved the block pattern using a normal pencil and then painted it with a base color and then highlighted individual stones with contrasting colors.  I then glued the foam to the Masonite framework using carpenters wood glue.  It was a time-consuming project but I did all the carved at the kitchen table while listening to Cubs games.  The Cubs won the World Series and I like the way the bridge turned out, so it was a win-win.
