Finding ways to be creative on the farm ❤️

Bummer. I never painted it. But i loved every coat of paint i was able to witness. My fear is the loss of this target will spread graffiti to larger areas. Oh well nobody asked me 😆

Sad day in Bellingham.

The Rock, as we knew it, is effectively gone.

What was presented as a relocation has become demolition. Instead of being preserved and moved, The Rock has been blasted apart into over 100 pieces, with even these larger fragments expected to be broken down further.

For many, this feels like a devastating bait and switch.

WSDOT, Kiewit Construction, and project partners have reduced a longtime community landmark, a piece of local culture, history, and expression, into rubble.

This update is not meant to diminish the cherished memories, creativity, or decades of community expression tied to The Rock. Generations of people painted it, celebrated it, protested on it, honored loved ones on it, and marked milestones through it. For countless residents, seeing The Rock meant you were home.

While its physical presence has now been destroyed, its meaning does not disappear. The Rock may be gone from the roadside, but it will continue to live on through the memories of those who experienced it, painted it, and loved what it represented to Bellingham.

For those wanting to see its final state, now is the time. The paint is largely gone, and what remains are fractured remnants of something that once stood as a symbol of community identity.

It is official. The Rock, in its original form, is gone.

But for many, it will always remain part of Bellingham’s heart.

Sunshine in the garden! The weeds are loving it!
