Rocks are my gardening favorite! I have made raised beds with them, lined walkways, made paths with the flat ones, and used them as accents for some of my favorite plants. They are beautiful. I thought I had way too many when I started landscaping, but last summer I hauled in several more truckloads. You can never have too many rocks! I have a pile in reserve for this summer's projects, and plan to bring home many more this summer! They look really great with my Junk-art too!

windigo - I posted some idea pictures on the other "Rocks Rocks Rocks" entry that you have (I didn't see the duplicate listing and picture till I had posted them). WOW! Those are some great rocks!! Very good ideas here, and you are right, you will probably be bringing in more rocks when you see how much beauty they add to your yard. My DH has finally gotten used to that idea, and we make special trips to the river to haul them home. We live smack in the middle of the Rockies, and about 25 miles from the Arkansas River in Colorado, so we do not lack in rocks around here, but what I wouldn't give to have a few of YOUR beauties!! I was picturing a mini-Stonehenge after seeing some of those longer boulders you have. Of course you would have to anchor them really well to protect the pets and little ones. I will be looking at those rock piles with a little different eye this summer! Good luck and please do post pictures of your projects!

Here is one of mine. One was on the edge of the pond and when I approached the pond he went bouncing all the way across the pond. I never knew they could land and jump on top of the water. Also the way his stripe continues through the eyes is interesting. Glenda

How sweet Patty! We sure do have a great group of friends here. Enjoy your goodies Jackie!
