Rock Tumbler

Looks very effective for 'drive by brail' boulevard encroachers. Contact there would not likely 'just buff out'.

We have a lot of interesting drumlins just outside Calgary sticking up in the middle of another wise flat field. The name is derived from the Gaelic word druim (“rounded hill,” or “mound”). I've seen some from the air that look patterned, almost 'alien'. They are remnants of relatively recent glacial melt. I think Cow Town was buried under 1.5km of ice only 22,000 years ago. But there was a particular animal species that smoked heavily, CO2 levels rose & well... you can see consequences. <insert smartass emoji>

Guessing BC copied California and outlawed Round Up. Too bad cuz it's awesome for that little problem.
Apparently it's also deadly to honeybees and with the infestations from the south of an aggressive species of bee they are doing what they can to try and keep the honeybee population from getting out of hand.

Here's a few years later. A drunk driver couldn't decide if he should go straight or go left up the hill so he split the difference. Vehicle was high centered on one of the rocks. And you can see the grass and weeds are starting to look more natural.

One of the reasons we did the landscaping. To avoid people parking in our yard among other things.

It used to be a ditch but was filled in when a new subdivision was added further down the road and they then brought sewer and storm drains along our property. Still took a few years before I got rid of the septic field.

As far as rocks go this is a Hunebed (#D27) in Drenthe, The Netherlands. We visited that with Anja when we took her back for her 1 year puppy show.

I have some large boulders that I'd like to set up something like this on the corner. The Hunebed were grave sites. This is where we'd like to put all our doggy ashes.
