I wish I could share some pictures.But alas I'm still saving up for a camera.

Hey Mel and Cindy,your rocks were great.Please share your pictures again.

Duckie...
Those are KILLER! Gotta make me some. Can't have too many stepping stones! (I saw a beautiful birdbath in a magazine using that same concept.)

I have rocks and stepping stones EVERYWHERE!
That's the reason I drive my little Toyota truck all the time instead of my car...because whenever I see a rock, I stop and GET IT!

I love rocks and your pictures and ideas are awesome! Has anyone ever rented something to move large rocks?? I broke my thumb between a rock and a rock and a hard place last summer.

I have been there, done that! It doesn't take a big rock to smoosh your finger into hamburger meat! I thought my fingernail was NEVER gonna grow back.

I use a backhoe to move my big rocks around, but I saw an episode of that gardener guy on HGTV use a big dolly that had a curved back to move rocks. And, he flipped them into place using a long steel pry bar as a lever and a piece of stone as a fulcrum. I used the pry bar method one day when I got tired of waiting on the backhoe guy, and it worked like a charm! Moved a BIG flat rock from one end of the yard to the other...flip, flip, flip...etc. (Then I moved it back. I have a hard time making important decisions!)

Oh WOW I'm planting my caster bean seeds next year toxic or not.

I love that, now to find a place to use some

Those are wonderful! I gotta' try it.
