And rocks are heavy! You know, this is why so much land in New England that was once cleared has now become reforested. Farmers here got tired of harvesting ROCKS! You can walk in the woods around here and see everywhere stone walls that originally enclosed farmland.
Have you rock pickers thought of moving? ;-) That's what farmers here did!

Just for the record, our woods here in Northern Virginia are also full of stone fences. -Allan (of course some of them might be battlements from 'the War.') -Allan
