Feral Aunties

Be Kind. That is the message from the “Adopted by Love” Feral Aunties of DCM. They started about a year ago, painting and hiding rocks around the Riverfront/Riverwalk-they live in Hedgeville, so they are neighbors! Their goal is to give someone a smile or an encouraging word (maybe when they really need it). Then they decided to see about hiding 50 rocks at the DCM for Halloween (they hid 74!). They had a spooktacular time leaving rocks for the kids and they have adopted the DCM as their most favorite place to hide their pieces of kindness! Be on the lookout – we feel there may be some holiday rocks that are going to be rocking the outside area of DCM in the very near future! Feral Aunties would like to leave you with a wonderful quote by an unknown author – “If you have to choose between being kind and being right, choose being kind and you will always be right.”
