Well I was fishing with my son and his friend and at the stream we were fishing at this guy was sitting in the water balancing rocks..yes balancing rocks and had a very high end camera or two there taking pictures of them.. here I find out after taking to him he is an artist with expos nationwide from Nowhereville PA and is a really nice guy..he even gave the kids some lures that he found while searching for rocks to balance. This is his web site keystonebalance.com/ |

This is his web site keystonebalance.com/Real neat stuff but, my first question is, are they really balancing? You'd think that just the motion of the water not to mention any breeze would topple these pretty quick. I'm wondering if he's got a tube of "Crazy Glue" hidden in his pocket.  |

That must surely take some talent and dexterity to do, I'm impressed!

And today I learned, there is such a thing as rock balancing. Which I found out from a pipe smoking website. One of these days I'm going to have seen all the sites on the web, and I'll have to go outside and play  |

I'll bet he could win lots of money at a bar making bets on what he could stack

It's legit. I've known about this guy and his work for a couple of years. His site used to included a video of him assembling one of his pieces. It's just the damnedest thing to watch, like he's willing these stones to remain in the position in which he's set them.
