Zen gardens

Just wondering if anyone else has ever tended a small zen rock garden, found out about them today and bought a small one, just looked up at the clock and realised id spent almost an hour playing around with this patch of sand and rocks - very relaxing and engrossing at the same time, (i normally have a small atention span) a form of meditation in itself i think.

its only the first day, but i think its something ill be able to stick with (heres hoping)

Always thought about putting one outside my dojo but I know the cat's will crap it all up like a litter box. Plus there a lot more work than most people think. Although the little desk top one your talking about is pretty cool.
