| one of the split rocks |
thanksgiving day at john and ellen's orion asked how john splits the rocks for his wall and john said "let's go spilt one", which is a way cooler anser than a simple explanation.
and it's totally awesome for me, because while i often take pictures of people doing interesting things, i really hit the jackpot if people talk while they're doing whatever it is i'm shooting video of.
and john doesn't just split the rock; he shows the tools and explains the process, which is GOLD to me.

| more of the inside of the rock |
so john's building this rock wall at the house and he's using glacial erratics fome his field and woods. when he splits them open, some of them are very interesting if you like rocks and stuff.
...which i do. and apparently john's a big rock fan, too.
so here are some of my pictures of the rocks and my video of the splitting.
