Naturally Sculptured Rock
You can’t say this is just a rock. There’s something special about this one. I found it so it’s ‘Mine, Mine, All Mine’. I just have to get it home.
This rock belongs in a water feature. I’m thinking of having it emerge from a shallow pond. In my dreams I imagine drilling a hole in a stragic spot and making a ‘fountain’ so water will cascade down in just the right spot.
But I won’t keep it. Someone else will get it. I’m funny that way.
But I do need to stop giving this kind of find away. I’m usually so happy just to have something like this to ‘work’ with I never think of selling the ‘find’. I get enough for my time I almost feel guilty charging for something I found.
Another poblem is how do you put a price on something like this. There’s nothing to compare it to, no ‘manufacturing’ costs and no purchase price. All I have is shipping and handling charges 
There is some value added. Nature was nice enough to apply some moss and lichens.
I figure it would take at least 3 hours to load, deliver and set it in place. All by hand of course since renting and transporting heavy equipment would make it way too expensive to even consider (IMO)
If you’re wondering – I’d charge about $150 for this rock. Of course every minute over 3 hours adds to the price.
So what would you be willing to pay?

A fountain is a great idea for that rock. A fountain like that is the kind of thing I don’t ever think of, but I’m fascinated by when I see it.

I would like to have it. The only problem is not on transportation but the rock will block and I won’t find my front door anymore.
Then I need to drill a big hole in order for me to get into my house.

Well I dared. I came across this site today while searching for some ref pictures. I didn’t know what lichens were till now. But I’ve seen em before and they really give the thing it grows on a character! The rock above, in my opinion, is beautiful. Nice find.
