The Rock

There is a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy. 25 in rural Iowa .

For generations, kids have painted slogans, names, and obscenities on this rock, changing its character many times.

A few months back, the rock received its latest paint job, and since then it has been left completely undisturbed. It's quite an impressive sight.

Be sure to scrolldown and check out the multiple photos (all angles) of the rock.

At the very end, you'll meet the young artist. I thought the flag was draped over the rock, but it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.

Here's the artist -- Ray 'Bubba' Sorensen. AWESOME Work, RAY...Thank you! 'God Bless America ' and 'OUR SOLDIERS AND VETS'
