Pebble Architecture

Marching down the porch steps, I decreed that the stone walkway was sorely lacking an ancient monument! I gathered five smooth river pebbles and a flat sliver of slate from the flowerbed border, determined to erect a colossal triumphal arch. Kneeling upon the damp flagstones, I held my breath with supreme concentration, stacking the rounded stones one by one with trembling precision. Just as I nudged the slate keystone into position—clatter! The entire structure surrendered to gravity, scattering into a tidy, curving semi-circle right around my toes. A collapsed arch? Absolutely not! An avant-garde, open-air stone amphitheater, perfectly appointed for beetle opera! #TheMuppets #Gonzo(TheMuppets)
