Rock Balancing at Riverfront Park

Details: Written by Chuck Martin

Ethen [Braughton], who now lives in Cape Girardeau, was rock balancing. Rock balancing is an art, discipline, or hobby (depending upon the intent of the practitioner) in which rocks are balanced on top of one another in various positions. There are no tricks involved to aid in the balancing, such as adhesives, wires, supports, or rings.
