What is happening in your driveway....

This is what happens in my driveway--Rock crushing. Actually to be exact it is called "rock powder"- by Caitlan. Rock powder has become an evening ritual around the Guinn house. Caitlan gathers up her tools and off she goes. She crushes rocks into a fine powder and then puts the powder into a small little bug catcher that has a magnifying glass on the top. As you can see she has safety glasses beside her in the first picture. She truly has gathered everything she needs. Do you remember doign things like this as a child??

I do!! We use to take leaves, plants, berries and crush them and mix with water to make paint. Then we would paint our clubhouse. We always lived way out in the middle of no where. Dirt roads, cow pastures, chicken coops, lakes, and the woods was our stomping grounds. Oh the joys of summertime and childhood!

She definetly has enjoyed herself. She had Jeff out there one night sitting with her in the driveway to discuss the art of "rock powder". These are memories that I will remember forever!! So if you are ever out driving and you see a little girl sitting in the driveway it just might be Caitlan making "rock powder", just stop on in and she will be happy to discuss the art with you too!
Enjoy,
