I had to share this post because I got a good laugh from it.
This mom says she had been looking everywhere for painted rocks since she goes hiking 3-4 times a week, and not having luck finding one. In this area, there are a lot of people who paint rocks and hide them on hiking trails for others to find, so I understand her wanting to find one. It’s so much fun!
Then one evening when she went to pick up take-out for dinner, her 6-year-old daughter found one of my purple painted beetles in the parking lot. LOL!! It doesn’t surprise me that a kid found the rock, because often children look around on the ground, while parents are looking at the general surroundings, making sure there aren’t cars coming and keeping everyone safe.
I had just dropped that rock off in that parking lot that same evening when me and my husband went to pickup takeout food of our own for dinner at a different restaurant in the same parking lot. I placed it on a curb hoping someone would see it…and they did!! ☺
Wherever you live, if you find a painted rock, and if there is a label on the bottom, I hope you will play along and post a picture of your find so that the painter knows their rock was found. ♥
