The photo of you in the Druids Chair is very, very good. I could almost see that photo being in a Dinotopia book!<BR/><BR/>Piled stones have a prominent place in my Paleo/Fairy Garden. I did it thinking of introducing a Celtic influence. Perhaps a stone town in Dinotopia would have a heavy Celtic influence.<BR/><BR/>Run Fast, Seek Peace,<BR/><BR/>AzThe New Gray Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06847371398508387832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-26403844475825014202007-08-14T04:09:00.000-04:002007-08-14T04:09:00.000-04:00Hi, ljay,I've also seen little settlements made by...Hi, ljay,<BR/>I've also seen little settlements made by passing strangers out of driftwood. I took a backpack trip along a remote stretch of the western part of Vancouver Island where the houses got to be pretty elaborate. <BR/><BR/>But when I slept inside one of them, I found out they were inhabited mostly by mice.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-35861111492032783642007-08-14T03:34:00.000-04:002007-08-14T03:34:00.000-04:00That sounds fascinating, a whole town!

I think it would be cool to be able to, as the need arises, expand or adapt your structure - just add more stones, or do a complete rebuild!<BR/><BR/>I myself love to build small towers of rocks behind at places I visit - just this sunday my family visited a beautiful, secluded waterfall and I stacked up a tower of smaller stones balanced on a huge boulder. I like the thought that the next person to come along might find it or just a pile of stones. Artist Andy Goldsworthy does some beautiful pieces in the landscape - far more refined than my simple stack of stones!LJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13860242868584582166noreply@blogger.com
