What about a nice piece of stone to accent your landscape?

The 50 pound hunk of Mica Shist was " rescued" from a 40 acre tract in Cobb County, GA, before it was bulldozed. With permission from the owner of course! It now resides in my backyard.

WOW Joe, you really have a piece of beautiful stone. I've always had a fascination for mica, and looking at yours up close tells me it's the finest speciman I've ever seen, bar none! That piece should surely be protected from the elemnts.

Thanks Juanita, I was fortunate enough to be able to rescue a few pieces so I have plenty to show off and preserve although I dont mind letting nature take it's course.
