Anyone in the Fort Worth Texas area looking to buy a truckload of rocks?! It is from an estate sale. If there’s any shop owners or anyone who would be interested let me know. I can get you the contact information. They don’t have a price so you could offer whatever you think.

Holy moley! I know we have some TX folks, but I don't know how close they are to Ft. Worth.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
~ C.S. Lewis

I'm pretty sure my wife is SUPER glad we don't live any closer to TX than we do! This would be like hitting the lottery! LOL

Dang, only 1100 miles from home, if I was home. If I didn't already have way too many rocks it would be tempting if it was still there in a couple months. Maybe they'll do container and all, catmandewe Tony probably has access to cargo box hauling.

“You preachers of equality, the tyrannomania of impotence clamors thus out of you for equality: your most secret ambitions to be tyrants thus shroud themselves in words of virtue. Aggrieved conceit, repressed envy—perhaps the conceit and envy of your fathers—erupt from you as a flame and as the frenzy of revenge.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche

No I wouldn’t consider it self restraint but more like survival techniques. It is the same concept I apply to new car show rooms and test drives (stay away and I won’t have another big car payment). I do have a 4 drawer file cabinet one drawer for projects, one for my slab collection, and two for my nice rough. If I add in my two buckets of local collection on the patio and the rock pile in the back flower bed I am pushing my welcome around the house. The dog house has been sold, the garage is too full of stuff, the HOA restricts camping in the back yard (besides it is too hot) so not being tempted to buy more rocks is just good for my health.

I have friends that can pick them up. I can’t buy all just a couple of crates if they are priced right
