my dad’s rock

When I think of my father at his happiest I picture him covered in dirt, holding a pick axe and digging. My dad loves to dig. And I've been trying to unearth a bit of understanding on why he spent the last 25 years uncovering a massive useless rock formation. I've been talking to all my family members too, asking them the same question: What did you think he was doing out there?
