Way back in October 2020 we were talking about rocks….still talking…

A good friend likes rocks even more than me! She had a birthday a few weeks back…what would she like for her birthday?

I remembered the piece of petrified wood found years ago at the Goodwill! and a smooth black stone from the Baltic sea…also from some years back. What a fun goofy birthday gift to give her. It was so fun to watch her open the present. They were wrapped in a paper bag 🙂 She loved them!

She told me the story of her husband finding a large rock with a stripe around the middle (reminded me of the Hampshire pig). Found in a farmer’s field they got a back hoe and delivered it to corner of her house where it is today!

How crazy is this affinity for a stone! We each talked of driving down the road and seeing a rock on someone else’s property and wanting it! I guess you can covet about anything!!

Well, we learned to keep driving and work with our own rocks.

For a ‘going away’ present, she gave me a beautiful smooth stone painted with colorful designs and hearts all over it!!! I just love it!!!

Often the most appreciated/loved things cost the least…just the thoughtfulness of taking time to learn what other people like and help them find it.

Life like this is so good!

What do you like? What do your friends like?

Can you give them some good?
