Hi Gina,
I too really love working with landscape stones in the rough. I started last winter doing my front yard, working the natural flora with native stone - the hands, they love to *get in it* and moving stones, digging in the dirt...really fun. Yes, the meaning and organization. I culled several dozen indiginous stones and immediatly organized them by type, size, coloring. My landlord was amazed. :-)
You said something about perminance, and I think this is true of the scarring I did to my hands for so many years. Some of the scars, places that were re-injured countless times, are very obvious. I like them. They mean something to me and I look at them often.
Got no tats, just oodles of scars.
