My brotherīs High School students fished this stone out of the river Saalach. They gave him the stone as a present and a gag.
The stone should remind him to his High School students.
The stone was lying some time in the garden of my brother till the moment I discovered it. I was allowed to take the stone
 home and I carfed a Dai made of cherrywood for the "Island". At the 40th birthday of my brother I returned the Stone with
the Dai as a present. The "Island", now a Suiseki, decorates my brotherīs home.
