Painted Rock - NorthernShy 2014

Sitting in the shade on a hot summer day, painting rocks.  Loving everything about the day - from choosing a rock from those lying under the birch cluster in the backyard - to the final 'photo op'.  Puttering about with these rocks reminds me of home where we had a 'front street' & a 'back lane'.  Both were just packed gravel. The crunch of a gravel road under my feet will always take me back there.  To quote the Rodney Atkins song "It Makes Me Wanna Take a Backroad", sitting painting these rocks is allowing me to "get lost and get right with my soul". Simple. Cool.
