Paragraph

When I was a boy, my father and I wanted to get rid of some huge rocks near our house in the countryside, but my mother wanted to plant a vegetable garden. The rocks were enormous, so we couldn’t move them. Unfortunately, we didn’t have the equipment to move such heavy objects. We decided to use an ancient method. We waited until water, and then we built a fire around some of the largest rocks. That made them crack a little bit but that wasn’t enough, in the evening, we poured water into those cracks and left. The water froze overnight since water expands when it turns to ice by the next morning; the large rocks had cracked into smaller pieces. We could easily carry away the smaller pieces. In short, water beats rock every time.
