Robby and I went to the 3rd Annual Rock Building Event in the Patapsco River. I didn’t know what rock building was, but considering my love of rocks, this was definitely something that I had to check out!
In my novel, Both Sides, the main theme of the adventure is, “Follow the Stones.”
The water spirits must have been jealous because I had an unplanned dip in the river up to my neck less than a minute after entering the river, but it was refreshing so I continued on to my rock building.
My creation was a rock pyramid. The inspiration came from my travels to the Giza pyramids in Egypt and the Chichen Itza pyramids in Mexico.

Robby and I had a great time and after the rock building we spent the rest of the day touring Main Street in Ellicott City.

Night falls on the rock creations. How long will they last?
Great day!
