Lookie what the birthday boy dug up with his backhoe 2016-09-08 - Greater Bliss/New Columbia - Photo by Junior Stotts. Today, September 7, is Junior Stotts' birthday. Day before yesterday, he was playing around with one of his backhoes and dug up his own present, a massive, interesting shaped stone which may have been, but could easily be weaponized. He says it was worth the effort just for the entertainment the operation gave to Lu, the Wonder Dog. It's for sale: $1,000, but buyers have to load it themselves.
