we have a big flat sandstone rock in front of the porch in the wifes flower bed and had our name painted on it with the incorporated date. well its only been 3-4 years and most of the paint has worn off and the stone itself is allmost black. I have noticed on the side of the interstate a small slip or rocks and they are flat pieces of blue slate. well today on the way home I had the grandson with me and decided to climb up and get one.


well since the hip replacement, lets just say I am not as nimble as I once was. we climbed up about 30-40 feet above the road and found a nice flat stone about an inch to inch and half thick and about 30 inches or so around. I told the grandson this one would work, so down we started, lets just say going up was easier than going down. I slid more than walked, as soon as I would get my footing I would loose it and down I went, We did make it to the bottom with the rock in one piece, more than I can say for myself, as I left a lot of hide on the side of the hill. I just hope momma is happy with her new rock!! I know it is gonna cost me a limp for the next week or so. gotta wonder how many of those folks in the passing cars were laughing their butts off.........
