Hay and The Annapolis Rock


George Halterman delivered hay this morning, 40 bales. We're in it now! Forty bales are now stacked in the garage/shed, on pallets. George's family is from here, has a road named after his grandparents. He had a very interesting story about THE Annapolis Rock, told us a portion of it is on his property.

The story, true or not, is fascinating. The Annapolis Rock was named because you could see the Annapolis capitol building from it's summit. The rock is made up of white quartz and was broken up over the years to make eye glasses. Apparently it is only about 600 feet above sea level at this time, having been mined and chipped over the years. I don't think you can see the State House in Annapolis.
