I love rocks! I *so* want to jump on this bandwagon. Maybe not this friday, maybe not the next, but sometime soon … Rock Blogging will come to P or M.

I certainly can’t resist peer pressure, regular Friday Rock Blogging it is Maybe next week I’ll find something from California, where I have half a chance of knowing things like “does it extend to Missouri?”… if only because there isn’t much that stretches that far.
Romeocat, let me know if you have any trouble with the ping, I haven’t actually tested that part of my new WordPress installation yet. Should be fine but one never knows…

DS - You climbed on the lovely Town Mountain Granite (TMG), of which the capital building in Austin is built. We also have jetties in the Lydian Ship Channel made from it. Enchanted Rock is one of my favorite places!
I think Friday Rock Blogging is a wonderful idea!

Yami - how original!
I like your idea a lot, and I also like your sense of humor. I think you ought to consider making rock-blogging a regular feature at the Ark
I’m going to try to send you a TB ping when I get my next bobcat (and jaguar - oooo! LOL) post up in an hour or so.
Anyway, keep the stone rolling!

Oooh, Granite! One of my favorite rocks. And nice pinkish K-spar. That’s some good rock to climb. I learned to climb at Enchanted Rock State Historcal Area in Central Texas on rock like that. It’s also part of a precambrian intrusion. A big one. I wonder if part of it goes all the way to Missouri?
