This is what we call a boulder here in Mississippi, the dollar bill indicates it's gigantic size. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif...it came from a county in Alabama and was transpored to Mississippi in the back floorboard of my truck......If their is any real boulders or large rocks in Mississippi (natural) please let me know, cause I havn't found them yet and I would like to pick up a few. And yes my Bx2230 will drag this baby.....

Man you don't get much rock for a dollar down there... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Up here we are not even known for having rocks...but that would almost be called a stone and used for throwing out on the river/pond/lake surface to watch it skip across... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Boulder? Ha, ha, ha...ROFLMA... /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

The freeze/thaw cycles can push dozens of rocks per year out of my yard. Many of them are close to that size. To me they are just a big nuisance.

If those things are actually wanted in MS, then maybe I could drop some off down there next time I pass through. I am a truck driver and I get down there occasionally.

Nolen, seriously down here we don't have much rock or stone but we do have a heck of alot of natural gravel. Many people do buy stone and boulders that are imported from other states for use in landscaping (esp water feature landscape).
a 2000 pound boulder here will cost you around $300.00 to $400.00 or so depending on how far it is transported.
P.S. no more pictures coming I have run out of dollar bills and rock.

I'll bet they told you that size doesn't matter /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

A KIOTI rock would be the same size, but it would weigh a lot more!
