Where is My Rock?
|
If you attended the Symposium last December and are joining us again, please bring stories to share about your rock and its adventures since last year.
Beti Wyn Holcombe's Rock
"It is on a shelf of an antique hutch that sits on my desk. It has good company - a favorite grandchildren picture, and a painting of a scene in Wales by a family member."
