Why did you send us that cartoon? Don't you know that I worry about rocks that have been out in the sun too long? Sometimes I consider flipping them over so they can get some sun on the other side, but I don't usually do it. After all, they may be happy the way they are. I still skip rocks across the pond, but I always pick them up in the water's edge, because those are already wet.
