In honor of Earth Day Donna asks us to “showcase anything from rocky landscapes to cobblestone streets”. I was excited when I first read her challenge because I have so many pictures of rocks I didn’t even know where to begin. It was hard but I finally chose the few I’ve included here.
The header image and the first gallery are natural rocks I’ve found during our travels. The header is of cactus flowers growing on top of Enchanted Rock near Fredericksburg, Texas.
These next magnificent natural rocks deserve a gallery of their own.
The next gallery shows some ancient man made rock structures.
This final gallery includes some rocks Henry collected during our years of Wandering Around the United States and Canada in our RV. If any of you have ever seen the 1954 movie “The Long, Long Trailer” starring Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz you’ll know that rock collecting while traveling in an RV might not be a good idea.
After we watched the movie, I resisted collecting rocks. Little did I know that Henry was collecting them! Luckily, he limited his collection to small rocks. The three in the big image on the left were collected during our Alaska and Canadian travels in 2013. The two smaller images on the right are the front and back of a rock Henry picked up in the cemetery near Seth Bullock’s grave.
Many thanks to our host Donna for the challenge Lens-Artists #295 – Rock Your World
