Then one will be painted, but it won’t be a rock.

I see a red rock and I want it painted black!

I would imagine at least until Saturday.

It means another symptom of lockdown boredom.

We have Tacoma Rocks! Little painted rocks hidden around the city.Tacoma’s weird!

My wife bought a painted ‘rock’. It turned out to be poorly cast concrete that disintegrated with the winter rain.

The neighborhood I just moved into has a little rag tag gang of blond girls (probably under 10 years old) that roam the neighborhood, painting rocks, doing chalk art on the street, it is kind of nice.

I feel inspired to paint some rocks and place them outside where they’ll spread some cheer.

It has been a thing here for several years.
