Thats an interesting idea for a place to get stone. Living in this area
I've slowly developed the (possibly wrong) notion that one simply
couldn't do that. That if you dragged a rock out of a brook then
somebody, either a rich man with a lawyer, a redneck with a gun, or
some environmental official would demand you put the thing back where
and how you got it. Maybe I have too much east cost on the brain.
Anybody know if this is generally an acceptable way to get stone?
