A friend of mine gave me this rock last weekend, yep, after I asked him to have it /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

He works in the slate quarries and said it came from about 90 ft down. I dont think the pic does it justice, there is one pocket that has beautiful clear crystals, just gorgeous.

I'd say it is a very interesting rock, it looks just like a porch! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Is that the rock on the ground or did you post the wrong pic?

Oh who are you kidden? You just don't want to get real close because you painted a rock "silver". /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

From what I can see it looks like something that could start up a conversation, neat.

Tell you this... If you could get more and make a walkway that would be something cool.
