Fun Garden Rocks

We found the shoe when we were collecting rocks for our water fall. It sits on the side of the water fall  We also must have picked up the face, too, but didn't realize it was a face until it got turned over then watered.   There it was.  We moved it under the crab apple tree to keep the geese out of the yard.
