Friday I went to the back of the yard to pick grass for my geese. Yup geese. And this rock just about slapped me in the face. I think it is Graveyard Point material? Must'a had a rockhoung in this house once upon a time. What a surprise to find this! It is about 5-6 inches x 4 x 3 -4 thick

I pick grass for them because they have eatten it all in the yard, the only grass is outside the fence. And I spoil them rotten. They are true pets, lap geese, not the attacking type people usually think of ;D

We had African geese for years for weed control, and grass mowing. Ours were a mix of attitude. One my wife helped out of the egg thought she was its mum, and would come running any time she was outside, and then follow her everywhere. One big male was our guard goose, and would challenge, take on anybody or everything. The local dogs learned about him fast. Woody

Now that is a neat find. Now, if only you could get those geese to dig for you, you would have it made! I sure hope you can find more! That looks like a really nice piece! Fran
