Moving rocks

Today I took my husbands old Chevy truck and searched for some good rocks for landscaping. I have a hard time passing up a rock pile!  And as always I'm trying to get things looking better before our 4th of July family and friends gathering in Sewanee.  I had some luck and found some nice ones to spruce up the landscaping.
When we built our home ten years ago I had the good fortune and offer to clear some rocks from our contracts project managers farm land. It was covered in large river rocks. They were perfect for my landscaping ideas and needs And the man needed those rocks cleared so that he could plant and farm his land. We helped each other!  I'm adding more rocks and it gives me a great workout! So it's a win, win for me since a hate workouts in the gym.  Being productive and getting the benefit of a workout is my idea of staying fit.  And the yard looks much better too!

This is a picture of our dog Sam laying in the rocks just to be close to where I was working I suppose.  I  cannot imagine that those rock were very comfortable to lay in.  I tried to coax him to a better spot!  But that's were he wanted to be!
