Taking a cue from stone vases and cairns for sale at Viva Terra, Happy Mundane made their own stacked rocks...

 
 

You know when you're out by a lake, or sometimes by the beach or just in the "great outdoors", you see those little piles of rocks that someone made? I've always found something really soothing about them. Not sure why. Apparently, it's called a "cairn", which "a heap of stones set up as a landmark, monument, etc... I was inspired to make a little pile of my own.

We like Happy Mundane's version even more than Viva Terra's.

And by "made their own stacked rocks..." you mean "stacked some rocks."

Yeah, uhhh, those aren't cairns. Just stacked rocks. And...not sure what's notable about someone doing it themselves - obviously anyone could.
