RE: Cheryl and forks


Donna,

how many do you want?????
Cheryl
I never considered rocks when I posted my reply. Here it is just that

Interesting, here there are no rocks to speak of, so for some of my
hardscapes, I have to purchase them...

 I, too, have no forks that are not both coming and going from rocks.
I
 don't
 buy them anymore.  One develops a rock strategy and that is that.  Or,
you
 could move <BG>.
