I thought you entered my mi WY rock contest but it is over now so I guess not. BTW will you marry me? A woman that can find rocks like that "and get it home" should be living in my house. lol The biggest one that I have managed to get home is 55 pounds. Jim

Jim, man you made me laugh but good today! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm a woman of great determination! When I see something I want , espec, when it comes to rocks, won't stop til I get it! HAHAHAHA! But seriously I wouldn't have this one if it wasn't for my friend, he had the truck, trailer, and skid loader that I don't. I just told him I wanted that rock, don't know how but I wanted it. I mean really what kind of rock hound would I be if I just left it there? Hahaha

Love to see, or hear, or read people laugh. Sometimes I get my lips and tongue in hot water but it is worth it.... And getting the rock home is called "using all available resources" and you did exactly that. We are proud of you. Now, is that a yes or a no? Jim BTW If I hear "I love you like a brother one more time I am going to jump off a rock. Not a high rock but one that could cause a sprained ankle or something.

Welcome to the group, and, nice find you got there ! All you need now is an angle grinder, several hundred wheels for it and, about 5 years of hard work to put a nice window on it !
Also an armed guard to make SURE it stays in your yard !

Hi Harley,This bad girl rock isn't in the yard! LOL It's under lock and key still!!! Outta sight! Had already had a guy snooping all summer looking for it. LOL Thinking on possibly selling it. Not sure yet. I don' know if I want the stress of worrying about someone stealing it. And with a beauty like this I can't see keeping it locked up where no one can enjoy it's beauty. That's like keeping a dog tied up in the country. Lol. A wild animal caged. A butterfly cooped up where it can't spread it's wings and fly for us to see its grace and colors and beauty. LOL. What are your thoughts on it? Anybodies for that matter? LOL

With as much effort as you put in getting it home think how difficult it would be to steal. It's not like someone is going to stick it in their pocket. Even a cow would be easier to steal than that thing. If it came up missing all you would have to do is check at the hospital to see who had gone in with a hernia problem. lol Jim BTW I would sell it. You can always find another one.

LOL would love to go on a BIG rock expedition some day LOL Thats when I wouldn't find one, hahaha I wasn't looking for this one just stumbled across it LOL Really did want this one!! It is a once in a lifetime find! Hernia would probably be the least of their worries, they probably be in with broken back and a heck of a headache from straining. LOL Find another one? ehh? Maybe?. LOL
