Sorry I missed it.  Those folks not only quarry and cut granite, they are
MADE of granite.  Have to be to withstand the weather we've been having
here lately and the politics they endure every four years.  Ruth

PS:  My great grandfather came to US from Scotland in 1880 to quarry
granite.  I think he died from inhaling granite dust.
