Painted Rock Village

     Some people prefer concrete gnomes in their yards, or coachmen holding lanterns, or even geese with seasonal capes (ugh!).  My back porch ornamentation runs to the whimsical end of the spectrum and is miniscule in scale. Rocks that I painted and varnished during the winter are arranged on a far corner of the steps. Simply landscaped with ivy and connected by pathways composed of smooth river stone, the little village appears to be home to a community of some small beings - fairies or elves, perhaps. But we never see them in the daylight hours!
