With her stick from the pathways still held in her hand, Rylee only needed to now find a rock. A good sized flat rock. The best place to find one of those was most likely near the lake. There was always a rock or two or several close to the water. Plenty of times she had skipped rocks across the water here, at least before she had developed that small fear she still harbored over the lake.

Making her way towards the waters edge but still keeping a healthy distance from it, she scanned the area for some rocks. A flash of color caught her eye and she spun around fast nearly slipping in a little bit of dirt. Only to see it was someone else looking for rocks too. Letting out a breath and laughing softly at herself she continued on with her search.

There! A little to close to the water for comfort was a rock. A shiny rather large smooth flat looking rock! Inching closer to the water carefully she stooped down and picked up the rock. It was exactly what she had been looking for! Brushing a little bit of dirt off of it she turned and quickly headed back.
