Jonathan's Rock

The other day, the boys were clearing the raspberry beds and Jonathan found a large rock. We told him the rock had probably been there since Mount Rainer blew up in 1854 and not to worry about it. Nonetheless, he was determined to get it out! Here are some pictures to show his accomplishment!

The hole where the rock has been all these years!

"It's so heavy"

"I am tough--I can handle it"

"Yes, man has defeated the rock"

LOL!!!! I read about this one homeschooler in Arkansas who dug a tunnel just for fun and ran into a gigantic rock! It was so big it would have been imposible to get out so he had to dig around it. Still, Great pictures :-)
