One great thing about the new house are the trails behind us. Yesterday while Abby was in Albuquerque with some friends, Dylan, Holli, and I were walking back there and we decided to see how far down the hill we could throw rocks. I was impressed with both kids throwing abilities. I didn't even have to tell them to throw overhand.
Holli asked how the rocks I throw stay up in the air so long. I told her about how throwing the rock hard and putting spin on it helps it stay in the air. She said, "It would be funny if something could throw us through the air - like a giant." I said, "And we would be like the rocks getting tossed." She said, "Yea, we're just like walking rocks."
And that is how the name of our band came to being. When the day comes that we can all play musical instruments, we'll call ourselves Walking Rocks.
