found squealing noise

I took off the left front wheel and took a flashlight and looked all around the brake calipers and rotors and found a small rock (pebble) lodged between the metal housing that surrounds part of the inside side of the rotor and the rotor itself.

A little nudge with a flat head screw driver removed the rock and all is well again. Since I had not driven it very far after first hearing that awful noise I couldn't feel any wear ridge or scoring so I think I'm good to go.
