rocks... i have to tell you about how we got a huge load of rocks for cheap! They were doing clearing of land for a new development, and there were boulders the size of bales of hay, some larger... So I drove into the worksite, found a guy, asked him if he'd deliver some to my house in his big truck. His boss said, yes, and his shift ended in 5min. So, he followed me home, backed up to our corner lot, dumped them where we wanted them... or close to it... I paid him $50, offered him a Mountain Dew, and he was on his way!

BEST purchase that year. We hired a friend with a tractor to come move the biggest ones in place, and we were pleased!

I'll see if i have an old pic of them... before the plants got too big. well, good, here was half of them... and they are burried about halfway in the ground! Kept the kids from driving thru our yard!
