The Highway rock

I’ve heard that there is  a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy 25 in  rural  Iowa. For  generations, kids have painted slogans, names,  and obscenities on this rock, changing its  character many times. A few months back, the  rock received its latest paint job, and since  then it has been left completely undisturbed.

It's quite an impressive sight. Be sure  to scroll down and check out the multiple  photos. all angles of the rock. I  thought the flag was draped over the rock, but  it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.

	Here's the artist: Ray Sorensen.

Tennessee Granddaddy Says:
I heard another story about carrying a load.

A little boy was carrying a wood box for his father, and a friend said "isn't that too heavy for you?” The little boy replied, “My daddy knows just how much I can carry."

Same with God, he’s never gives a load that is more than we can carry.

Normal people believe that if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Engineers believe that if it ain't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
