By LARRY VAUGHT
On the SEC coaches teleconference Monday, I asked South Carolina coach Frank Martin about his general observations on Kentucky, a team he will face Saturday. I knew he had not broken down film on UK with another game before South Carolina faces the Gamecocks, but I also knew he had seen UK on film and was always candid with his comments.
Here's what he said:
"I think they're real good, and I don't think Cal gets the credit he deserves for the job he does. To rely on so many freshmen, to not have those foundation guys – I guess (Alex) Poythress and I can't remember the young man's name, (Jarrod) Polson, that they've been with them for at least a year, they provide that consistency that he's looking for," Martin said.
"But every year, I don't care if Cal is coaching seniors or freshmen, you don't want to play them at the end of the year because his teams play their best basketball at the end of the year, and that's obvious with this team that that's happening."

Brazil's John of God, Sheryl Sandberg, Justice Sonia Sotomayor are the influencers that Oprah Winfrey speaks one-on-one with this week.
Sheryl Sandberg, chief operating officer of Facebook, and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor are the two women on an all new episode of Oprahs Next Chapter, airing Sunday, March 24 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network.Winfrey travels to Silicon Valley for an in-depth interview with Sandberg, who has ignited a firestorm with the recent release of her new book Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead.
Sandberg takes Winfrey to her favorite restaurant, the place where she and Facebook Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg first sat down to discuss her future at his company. She opens up about her famous boss, life inside Facebook, and how she manages one billion users worldwide and still makes it home by 6:00 p.m. to have dinner with her husband and two kids.
In the second half of the episode, Winfrey travels to the Bronx, NY to sit down with Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the first Latina and only the third woman to ever serve on the U.S. Supreme Court. The two meet at the Justices alma mater Cardinal Spellman High School where she candidly chats with Winfrey about her revealing memoir, her humble beginnings, the promises she made to President Obama, and the perils of dating when you sit on the highest court in the land.
To watch a sneak peek of the episode (with embed code) click here:
EXCERPT: Sheryl Sandberg says there is no such thing as work/life balance
WINFREY: Youve said theres no such thing as work/life balance.
SANDBERG: There is no such thing.
WINFREY: Why, why is there not work/life balance?
SANDBERG: I think all these phrases people throw at woman are so harmful. Having it all is the worst.
WINFREY: Oh, please.
SANDBERG: Right? People must ask you all the time, How do you have it all?
WINFREY: Yeah, How do you have it all?
SANDBERG: Having it all is the worst. No matter how much we all have and how grateful we are for what we have, no one has it all. Because we all make tradeoffs every single day, every single minute. Work/life balance no one ever asks a man.
WINFREY: Lets stay on Having it all for a second, cause I love that. I dont think that you can - you can have it all, I feel like I do, but you cant have it all at the same time.
SANDBERG: Thats right. And whats happened, if you compare my generation to my mothers generation - my mother says this all the time - in her generation work was 9-5, Monday to Friday, forty hours, no one expected anything else.
And parenting was actually much more constrained. Whats happened now, we are all connected, my industry is part of the problem, right, we are connected all the time, we expect our colleagues at work to always be available. And the amount of time mothers spend one-on-one in that direct child thing with their kids has totally changed.
My mother didnt organize play-dates, we rode our bikes next door, there were no play-dates, she wasnt with me. My mother didnt sit there with me as I did all my homework. She helped me when I asked. Checked in every so often, and work has changed and made it more intense, and parenting has changed and made it more intense. Im not judging those things, they might be bad, they might be good. They make it harder and harder for working women, and almost all women in this country are working women. And almost all kids are being raised by two or one parent whos in the workforce
WINFREY: Absolutely.
EXCERPT: How Justice Sotomayor was affected by an alcoholic father
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor was raised in a Bronx housing project by her mother, Celina, and her father, Juan. When she was 9 years old, her father, an alcoholic, died suddenly. Watch as Justice Sotomayor shares how her father's disease transformed her into a watchful child. Plus, find out how she used that watchfulness to her advantage in adulthood. Watch Oprah's interview with Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg and Justice Sonia Sotomayor on Sunday, March 24, at 9/8c.
WINFREY: How do you think you were affected growing up with an alcoholic father?
SOTOMAYOR: You become a watchful child, and I listened very very carefully to the world around me. I think that children who live with parents who are drug addicts who are alcoholics, or have psychological challenges, you also learn to watch people.
Youre looking for those subtle physical signs that tell you trouble is coming. That ended up being great for me, because when I was a lawyer I knew how to watch people so that when a witness hesitated, my mind would just race to the conclusion of - theyre trying to hide something, what is it? And I would dissect the story in my brain and nine out of ten times I would figure out the hole that they were trying to avoid.

5km, 2.5 hours, low difficulty
For the less rugged experience, follow this trail around Cyprus Lake. A watchful eye will note the charred stumps from forest fires of the early 1900s. There are many access trails from the Cyprus campground and campers are encouraged to use this trail as their path to the Head-of-Trails.
3km, 3.0 hours, difficulty varies
The Georgian Bay Trail is the easiest and quickest path to the park's scenic cliffs and shore. At the shoreline this trail meets the Bruce Trail, giving the option of two different routes.
Halfway Rock Point offers an excellent vista: on the northern horizon lie Flowerpot and Bear's Rump islands in Fathom Five National Marine Park. From here the trail enters Indian Head Cove, favoured by both swimmers and SCUBA divers. West of this cove are two sea caves, the Natural Arch, and further along, the Grotto.
These caves were carved from the rock face by centuries of waves beating on the porous dolomite of the cliffs. At least two underwater entrances lead into the Grotto from the Bay.
The return route via Marr Lake is identified by signs on the cobble beach west of Indian Head Cove. Be careful. This route is rough as it crosses the rubble along the shore between the Grotto and Marr Lake.
1km, 0.5 hours, moderate difficulty
This trail skirts the eastern side of Horse Lake and wanders through a great diversity of habitats (i.e. marsh, lake edge, woodland shoreline). The trail ends at a boulder beach on Georgian Bay. Here the options are to return the same way or continue along the shore in either direction on the Bruce Trail.
At Singing Sands Day-use Area you can choose from a variety of easily hiked trails. There is a map posted at the parking lot which will help you to plan your hike.
Note: The Park Visitor Code (see Camping section ) applies everywhere within the park.

MANCHESTER — A local teenager was ordered held without bail on Friday after police said he held a woman in her apartment, groped her and attempted to put his hand inside her clothing on Jan. 22.
Robert Bessette, 19, of Manchester, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court on Friday on two felony counts of lewd and lascivious conduct and a felony count of second-degree unlawful restraint. Bessette pleaded innocent to the charges.
In an affidavit, Officer Paul McGann, of the Manchester Police Department, said he had met with a woman on Jan. 23 around 8:20 p.m. who complained that Bessette had been bothering her as she was trying to move out of a Main Street apartment.
The woman, who had a relationship with Bessette, told police at the time that there had not been "anything physical" but said she wanted Bessette to "leave her alone," according to the affidavit.
On Jan. 24, however, McGann said he learned the woman had requested a temporary relief from abuse order from Bennington family court and reported that Bessette had tried to initiate sexual conduct with her against her will on Jan. 22.
McGann said he met with the woman on Jan. 24 and asked her to tell him what happened on Jan. 22.
According to the affidavit, the woman said Bessette had tried to initiate sexual contact at the Main Street apartment with her at least five times.
The woman said Bessette pinned her down in the kitchen and touched her several times while he was in the apartment. She told McGann he also attempted to put his hands inside her clothing several times.
Arguing that Bessette should be held without bail, Bennington County Deputy State's Attorney Alexander Burke pointed out that Bessette was already on probation and had previously been convicted of seven misdemeanors and four felonies.
Judge Cortland Corsones ruled that Bessette would be held without bail until a hearing to determine if Bessette will have a chance to be released pending the resolution of the case. Corsones said he made his decision based on Bessette's criminal history and the serious nature of the new charges.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER — Vermont Health Department says eight children from the Charlotte Central...

R Coronae Borealis spends most of its time at magnitude 6.0, but every few years it suddenly drops to magnitude 14 or fainter. It gradually recovers in the following months, though often suffering relapses along the way. The fade-outs are believed to be caused by clouds of carbon particles — sooty smoke — condensing above the star's carbon-rich atmosphere.
T Coronae Borealis behaves oppositely: it's a repeating nova. It spends decades on end simmering at 10th magnitude, then blazes to 2nd or 3rd magnitude. Its last eruptions came in 1866 and 1946. The next could happen any time.
Take a look with binoculars using this map. You'll probably find R bright and T invisible. (Comparison-star magnitudes are given, with the decimal point omitted.) Look often, and pretty soon you won't need the map to check on what these stellar opposites might doing whenever you step out for an evening's starwatching.

Carrot Rice • Havij Polo • هویج پلو
Recipe by: Fae's Twist & Tango (fae-magazine.com)
• 2 cups basmati rice
• salt
• 4 carrots
• 1 Tbsp caramelized onion
• 1 cup dried cranberries
• ½ tsp cinnamon -or- cumin (preference of your taste, either is optional)
• pinch (1/16 tsp) pepper
• smidgen (1/32 tsp) ground saffron diluted in 1 Tbsp hot water (optional)
• vegetable oil
• 1 large russet potato for tah-dig
To soak the rice
◊ Some imported rice brands may contain non-rice small particles which must be scrutinized and removed by hand before washing. Also, some brands may need to be washed with extra agitation until water is clear. Put the rice in a large enough bowl with plenty of water and rub the rice between two hands to scrape off any powdery substance. Drain in a fine-meshed colander. Rinse the rice until clear water runs through.
◊ Put the washed rice in a bowl, add 1 Tbsp salt, cover with water level 5 cm/ 2″ above the rice and set aside for more than an hour. This can be done in advance and soaked for 3+ hours, or overnight.
While soaking the rice, make the carrot mixture:
◊ Peel carrots. Cut them as instructed in the photos.
◊ Fill a medium-size pot half-way with water, add salt and on high heat, bring to boil (salt is to retain vibrant color of the vegetable). Add cut carrots and boil for 1~2 minutes or until semi-cooked. Drain the carrots and rinse with cold water to halt the cooking.
◊ In a medium size bowl, mix boiled carrots, cranberries, caramelized onion, cinnamon or cumin, 1/8 tsp salt, pepper and saffron water. Set aside.
◊ For potato tah-dig: peel the potato, cut it at least 15mm/ 5/8″ thick and soak in a bowl of tap-water and set aside.
To boil the rice
◊ Have a colander ready in your sink, one with fine-mesh or with very small holes, and with legs, so that it doesn't touch the sink bottom.
◊ In a non-stick pot (9 cups capacity) bring 5 cups of water to a boil. Drain water from the soaked rice and add to the boiling water. Keep your attention on the pot or else the foam from the boiling rice may overflow.
◊ As the rice starts to boil briskly, lower the heat to medium-high and occasionally, gently stir the rice in a circular motion. At this point, taste the boiling water (carefully) to insure the salt content is to your taste. Add salt if needed.
◊ In a few minutes, after rice begins bubbling like a fountain, it boils slower/thicker. Test/bite a grain to check its hardness. Do this repeatedly, as timing is very important. As soon as there is no more hardness in the center of the rice (don't let it get completely soft), drain rice in colander waiting in sink. It is better for rice to be a tad under-cooked than over-cooked. Rice should not sit in the colander more than a minute (it will continue cooking and be sticky soft). At this point, you must act quickly.
◊ Rinse the non-stick pot used for boiling. Add 4 Tbsp oil. Drain the cut potato and layer in the bottom of the potato.
◊ With spatula sprinkle ¼ of the boiled rice over the layered potato. Add 1/3 of carrot mixture, repeat this 2 more times and finish it with rest of the boiled rice on the top. Pour 2 ~3 Tbsp of vegetable oil all over the top of the rice.
◊ Put two layers of paper towel over the pot and put on the lid tightly. Steam the rice on medium-low heat for 45 minutes (no more).
◊ Dish out the rice sprinkling in a large serving dish. With a non-stick-pot-safe spatula, remove the potato tah-dig (let the oil drip well) and serve in a separate dish or on the side of the rice.
Note: For saffron rice garnish, in a medium bowl make another smidgen saffron diluted in 1 Tbsp hot water and 1 Tbsp butter. Add ¾ cup of the mixed rice, mix well and garnish the top of the dished-out rice and serve.

The top three organizations with the most unique donations of $50 or more will receive $20,000, $15,000 and $10,000 respectively – doubled from 2011. Grants of $2,500 each will be awarded to "early birds" or the first 15 organizations to reach at least 50 donations of $50 or more. Mini-contests will help spur giving during certain time periods (Sunset Special or Procrastinator's Prize) or to signify certain achievements, such as Most Improved or Long Distance Donor. Last year, the Amazing Raise generated nearly 6,500 donations and $630,000 in donations and incentive prizes. A total of 270 organizations received at least one donation, with Church Hill Activities and Tutoring taking home the top prize with 382 unique gifts.

Application was pretty smooth. No major hiccups except Im still waiting for Georgia Perimeter College to release my transcript for the last pre-reqs I took fall 2011.

I have already taken the TEAS (because KSU requires it) and I didn't study anything before I went and I had no idea what was even on it. I made a 90.6. If you haven't taken it yet, don't stress! I was finished in like an hour and 20 min. -

Do not take this if you are not applying there" And Emory is not listed in the "All Sites" field. Please help if you can. Thank you! My email is email@example.com

Gravity Rush is shaping up to be one of the Vita's most anticipated original games this year and it looks stunning, too.
According to art director Yoshiaki Yamaguchi, the game owes its art style to "the theme of Bande Dessinee (BD), a popular Franco-Belgian comic book art style".
"We first approached an element of BD we thought would fit well into the pre-existing game art. One of the differences between realistic expression and schematic expression represented by BD is that BD exaggerates the information that author wants to convey to the audience. By doing so, it conveys more of the accurate information that the author wants to be recognized," he explained.
"While considering the gravity mechanic in the game, we brainstormed with these elements in mind. If a player can move around freely, the level should not only be big horizontally, but also vertically. Therefore, we designed the city with multiple levels of layers and structures.
"Additionally, the line drawing method was used to exaggerate buildings and allow them to be more easily recognized. We also enhanced the color of the sky in order to give additional sensory information to the players," said Yamaguchi.
Below is a concept video created during the early stages of Gravity Rush's development. The game's out in US on June 12, and UK on June 13.

Hey Taryn,
Welcome! You arrive the day before we leave, I think you will have a great time, the holiday crowds will have started to head back home. I just made our ADR's this AM (our 90 day is today). It was a little crazy, we had already decided a week prior on the calendar what parks on what days, where we want to eat. I will say that we had problems with 2 different places and one of them(Cape May) is just not available. I will be checking everyday for it.

"I too got this recipe from another site, then after I mixed it I thought it seemed odd. So I came here and read the reviews. So I doctored it up a bit...

"Love these. I always sautee the onions in a little butter and thyme first to make them "mine". Everyone loves the thyme, it makes them stand out from the regular cheesy potatoes. This recipe has the right amount of cheese to potato to creamy goodness ratio. Thanks"

"Turned out well. Hit the "random recipe" button on Zaar this morning and this is what appeared. All ingredients on hand so therefore a winner. Only had about 30 min to let the chicken marinade, but still turned out great. Used Panko crumbs. This is my new oven fried chicken recipe."

November 2, 2012
One of the programs that I am involved with at Hamilton is called "D.E.A.R.", which stands for Drop Everything And Read. It is a great program; it is very informative if you are a student interested in Education, but also just a lot of fun if you just need to get off campus for a bit and interact with some kids (as one of the volunteers said this week, you become reliant on going into the school as a stress-reliever during the week).
I've been a volunteer for DEAR since last year, and have had some really awesome experiences. Some of them have been funny, such as when a 1st grader excitedly told me an anecdote about how her dog always does the "happy dance" on her leg, or when a student who was working with my friend Molly had to use the word pretty in a sentence, and wrote 'You're so pretty I could pass out'. Others have been really insightful, which was the case with this week.
I was working with a student, trying to help him with his reading and writing skills. He was clearly struggling with both, especially writing. When the teacher told him to write the sentence "There are 1 tens and 2 ones in the number 12," he had no idea how to begin writing the word 'there'. As I suggested that we sound it out, I realized that 'there' is not a word that you can necessarily spell correctly from sounding it out. I began to think about the challenges of being a teacher, especially in elementary school. Every student needs so much attention to develop these skills, and with class sizes of about 20, it can be really hard to give students the attention they need.
These experiences are extremely helpful with gaining experience in the field of education, but they also raise a lot of new questions and realizations, which are important to address as a teacher.

A few years ago, when I was in journalism school, a friend of mine went to a panel of members of the Pulitzer Jury hosted at the school. She asked the panel members how they had managed careers in journalism, the brutally long hours and low pay, with their personal and family lives.
The men, many of whom had worked at several newspapers around the country, said it had always just worked out. One said his wife was a teacher, and she could get a job anywhere. Yes, there were long hours and demanding schedules and sometimes assignments far away, but most of them said their personal lives had just turned out ok.
The sole woman on the panel, an editor at a mid-sized city's most prominent daily, said, "Actually, I'm divorced." For my friend, and, by extension, me, this was maddeningly telling. It's not so much that the men on the panel had clearly, continually made career decisions with their own interests trumping everyone else's. It was that someone, i.e., their wives, in their lives had routinely made sacrifices and they didn't even realize it. No, things just don't turn out ok. Someone makes them so.
I was reminded of that when I read Tom Colicchio's blog entry about the first woman to win the reality show contest he judges, Top Chef:
"Right or wrong, men plunge into their careers without much thought about how they'll navigate the work/family balance. They assume someone — spouse, parent, paid caregiver — will materialize to take care of it (and usually someone does.)"
I've argued before that childcare and other domestic work is undervalued, and it is. But why is it, on a cultural level, the women who realize this? Why do we still make sacrifices every day that in the long-run make us unhappy but that men (as a whole, obviously not all men) don't even seem to notice? And what do we do to fix it?
Communicating better seems to be the first thing, and a better division of labor. Maybe we'll learn about it through same-sex marriages. In the meantime, if you're in a relationship or a marriage or a partnership of any sort, man or woman, think about whether you've ever thought about, constructively, the ways your career choices will affected your household before you make them. If you haven't, I'll guarantee someone has.

Brimmer & Heeltap, a cheery bistro and bar in Ballard, is as comfortable to slip into as your favorite jeans. In a neighborhood not lacking for dining options, it's quickly becoming a hangout for thoughtful eaters and drinkers drawn by a well-tended bar and a tantalizing, flexibly priced menu.
A couple of locals opened Brimmer & Heeltap quietly in late December. Jen Doak, a longtime Ballard resident, counts Tilth and Agrodolce on her extensive résumé. Chef Mike Whisenhunt, Ballard-born and raised, cooked under Rachel Yang and Seif Chirchi, first at Coupage, then at Joule and Revel.
Doak and Whisenhunt thoughtfully updated the 90-year-old building, the former home of Le Gourmand and Sambar. A J-shaped bar juts from the open kitchen. My favorite seats are the two stools along the curve at the end of it, where you are well positioned to see both bartenders and cooks, as well as admire the striking geometry of the space.
An upholstered banquette cuts a jaunty teal green swath along a whitewashed interior wall that's been pared to the studs. It physically divides but visually joins the main dining area and the smaller room beyond (what used to be Sambar) where the floor is paved with pennies and the wall papered with Doak's menu collection.
Above that peek-a-boo divide hang pendant lamps in assorted shapes and sizes grouped together to form an ad hoc chandelier. Below them, in recent weeks, rows of gerbera daisies nodded a colorful salute to spring.
The first signs of spring are just showing up on the menu. Tangy crème fraîche coddled firm English peas, accented with fresh mint and pickled carrots. A special of pan-seared halibut came with an exhilarating chopped salad — asparagus, radicchio, pistachio and Castelvetrano olives dressed with lemon grass and ginger vinaigrette. A vegetarian variation on that dish — with broiled asparagus spears peeking from underneath the radicchio salad and a whole, soft-cooked egg teetering on top — earned a recurring spot on the menu.
Whisenhunt is fond of salads and pickled things, and he manipulates textures, acid, salt and heat effectively. His brief menu offers a handful of quirky snacks and some outstanding desserts but focuses on vegetables, seafood and meat, offering three dishes in each category, most available in small and large portions.
Spring means bidding adieu to turnips braised with quince, richly caramelized root and fruit in a tart, buttery sauce crunchy with pork cracklings. Octopus soup is also gone; it was an ideal rainy-day soother, crowded with parsnips, daikon, leek and kale jostling slices of cephalopod in a dashi broth.
Not surprisingly, there are Asian influences aplenty. Chewy Korean rice cakes bolstered creamed spinach dusted with hazelnut salt. Sweet nori rice crackers poked from steak tartare glistening with sesame vinaigrette on a plate rimmed with bright red chili salt to incorporate as you like.
Baby bok choy kimchi accompanied a broiled pork shoulder steak enhanced by a spicy brine and an urfa biber (Turkish pepper) rub. Tender chunks of roasted, butter-basted chuck steak teamed memorably with pickled mirepoix (chopped carrot, celery and onion) and shio kombu, a sweet/hot salad of shredded kelp and mustard seed.
Whisenhunt unleashes his imagination in other directions, too. Braised rabbit goes into crepinettes, parcels of savory meat wrapped in spinach and onion and encased in caul fat. Another vibrant side salad of watercress and herbs balances their richness.
Dungeness crab trifle layers mirepoix gelée, custard, brioche and ginger beer with plenty of cracked crab in a tall parfait glass. Crab cocktail purists might fuss, but I loved every multifaceted bite, including the Brussels sprout leaves on top.
All three current desserts delighted. Creamy coconut meringue crowned a bewitching key lime tart. Smoked fig compote graced bourbon-laced chocolate mousse. A drizzle of exotic "Kashmiri syrup" introduced notes of cardamom and white pepper to bites of gingery carrot cake that you would never guess is gluten free.
A miscellany of "snacks" includes sticky, salty steamed buns filled with sweet kabocha squash; crisp bits of fried lardo with diced, pickled apples; and "toast" — two baguette slices topped differently every day at the chef's whim. You'll take a chance on those, but not on much else here.

Now and Not Yet
What God may hereafter require of you, you must not give yourself the least trouble about. Everything He gives you to do, you must do as well as ever you can, and that is the best possible preparation for what He may want you to do next. If people would but do what they have to do, they would always find themselves ready for what came next.

My Foolish Heart
I've been listening to jazz lately. I am continually amazed by how truly adept it is at expressing the complexity of human emotion without words. My current favorite song owns the same title of this post. This song seems to have been written for a Nora Ephron film before Nora Ephron films became a thing. (And apparently, Nora Ephron has been on my mind quite a bit lately. I've referenced her on Twitter and Facebook in the last two days.)
A Dream I Didn't Know I Wanted
We are 21 days into the new year, and I feel pretty good because I didn't make any resolutions. They'd be broken by now. I just couldn't deal with the emotional trauma.
Instead, I decided that I was going to stop telling myself to do things and actually start… doing them. (Please pardon the motivational speaker tone of that sentence.) Continue reading

So, there used to be a magical time in IN, when you could drive into one of the many quarries in central /southern IN & get to load your trunk up with scraps of limestone for super cheap! Sadly, our litigious society has killed the kindness of the quarries & now I may have to pay exorbitant prices to edge the new pond that I'm installing. SIGH! Any Hoosiers out there who still know of quarries that let you pick up scrap stone? Or any other fabulous ideas for finding inexpensive stone? It's a pretty small Pond, & I am so NOT picky about what kind of stone it is. |

May or may not help you, but I generally get all my rocks from new construction areas. The earth movers uncover lots. |
Like the previous poster, I'm not sure if this will help you. I used to live right on the edge of White and Tippecanoe Counties (west central IN), surrounded by fields. Every spring the farmers would have to pick field stones out of thier fields so their equipment wouldn't get chipped by the rocks. Most of them just had a spot at the corner of a field where they would dump them, or sometimes they piled them near their barnlot. If you have friends out in the country or live near the country yourself, drive around and look for piles of fieldstone. I know the couple of times I asked farmers for them they were MORE than happpy for me to take them. |
Have you tried companies that make counter tops? I just did a huge granite patio entirely from scrap material from a counter top company. It was free. They had marble and some other stones as well. I'm in northern Indiana. |

i get my stone from Garrity's at about 3500 N. Ritter Ave. on the east side. i had my limestone and gravel for my pond delivered for less than $100, about 5 years ago. i also used to go to the Stone Center, off Allisonville Rd. we would get the van weighed, and drive back to the river rock. i would take about 5 kids and we would hand pick the rocks we liked. we then would have the van weighed again to get the price per pound. the kids loved it, we got the exact stones we wanted and didn't have to pay delivery charges. |

I live in Irvington (eastside Indy) and I have limestone landscaping rock on the side of my house that you can dig out and have if you want it. I was planning on getting rid of it anyway. |
Woohoo. Katie, you rock! |

katielovesdogs, i'm from irvington too! do you go to the garden club meetings? |
Katie, I'm not sure if the GardenWeb email form is letting me actually email you. Can you drop me an email directly at firstname.lastname@example.com? Thanks! |
Thanks all for the great suggestions. With some old cement pavers I had left over from another project, and the some slate & rocks that Katielovesdogs was kind enough to give me...I've temporarily edged the pond, until I find or buy more of the rocks that I want. The link below shows a pic of the new divine lounging area around the pond. :) Momcat, you should come visit the yard again...there's been a lot of change since you visited 2 or 3 years ago! |

did i hear "party at fiona's house"?......margie |
Hey girl! Your yard is looking GREAT! :) I have some small limestone flat rocks for free if you are still looking for some. Email me directly and let me know, ok? Andrea |
Forgot, I also have hand made concrete small pavers that can be used for a path, stepping stones, whatever. I didn't make them...they were here w/ the house but they might work for something...? They are diamond shaped and can be used to form patterns. |
