Well, the rock garden has been a start-and-stop project. You can't do a lot to make a rock garden until you have a substantial amount of rocks. That's when we started with the Homecoming donations. We have a few other special rocks in there: one from the house where I grew up as a kid; some from Maine (representing John's stomping grounds); a few from Alabama where I lived when I met John :), etc. We have a special glass rock that stays in the house. It's even inscribed "Stovebolt." Once the "garden" is done, it will go in a safe place out there.
One Homecoming, NAPCO Man brought me a BOULDER from Virginia. Then the "game" was on. So, I have about five really huge rocks. I'll get a pix sometime ... and get it OUT of this thread! (Sorry for hijacking ... it's sorta related, isn't it ... bringing the rock and all ???
) If Mexico Sab comes, I hope to get a rock from her!!
