Oops...mistakes happen

Had to make a decision on porch steps.  Wanted them to be stone.  Apparently you can't use the man-made stone like on the side of the house because it is not made to withstand foot traffic over the long haul.  So off to try to match something up...final decision ended up being made by me over the phone with the stone company...major mistake...this was the result:

It was worse than it looks in the pictures. I'm sure the neighbors were thrilled that we decided to suck it up and pay for a change order to redo them to a different color.
