The Stone Man


My imagination: Noble tall and proud he stands firm as wind buffets him, eroding and smoothing this rough man. Patriotism burning in his stone heart and he will not waver. Guardian of good and right he carries truth and justice through summer storm and winter heat, never faltering. His dominion is of sagebrush and unending sky.

He will never change, this warrior of a distant day. Unyielding he remains through all that changes.

My memory: Hiking with my two best friends. Laughter. Chatter. Stories. Exquisite views and interesting rock formations. Snapping many pictures, this is only one to commemorate that day.

Facts: sagebrush, dirt, trees, grass, and rocks.
