Thanks Shirls!!




Shirley started by filling her nice car with dirt, roots, pots, plants, flowers, seeds, tools, food and a hummingbird feeder. Her arrival was quite a site. Determined to get me back into the swing of spring she directed our four hour effort and then it was up to me.She made a second trip with more colorful things. Then other friends donated living treasures. I have always been a collector of rocks but I like doing things with them. Otherwise they get a little restless. I love the numbers idea!

A lot of rocks goes a little ways!

Lucy-
I have collected rocks since I was little. I carry them home from all my travels. It is one of those funny things that I never share. I had a club of kids at school all with the same admiration for them. We called ourselves the rock stars:) This looks beautiful.

Shirley of course it does! Your "stock" is above and beyond. <cough cough> as for the stones and their origins they sure do look like beach rocks that were stranded onto people's ocean porches, therefore making it possible for me to have them. Sue you will be seeing it in person. Maybe by then the grass will grow.

Looks awesome.

I think you should paint numbers on the bottom of the rocks....and visitors get to pick a rock and try to see if they WIN.

Or you could always just play WAR with the indians on the other side of the fence......
