Like most kids, my grandsons have a fasination with rocks. At ages 5 and 3 years old they love to pick them up, collect them and of course throw them too. Fortunately for them they not only live in a town that offers many opportunities for these activities but also boasts "rock" as part of its name. Yes, you can find rocks of all shapes and sizes here. From the boulderous natural coastline to the smooth popplestones that frame our beaches; there are no shortages of rocks here. It is popplestones however that take center stage today. My grandsons collected and painted these beautiful smooth stones for their dad for Father's Day. The older one practiced his handwriting and then proudly presented these "Vegetable Markers" to their Dad!
Of course their works of art were received with the heartfelt OOHs and AHHHs that they deserved. They are now on display in the family vegetable garden.
