Calling all geologists!

I am a 'rock hound' and always check out the rocks wherever I am - but these La Jolla rocks were hard to decipher.

I have put up these shots [with enhanced color and contrast] to try to show the context of the agate-like rock. Can anyone tell if these rocks are sedimentary or metamorphic - or metamorphic inclusions in a sedimentary matrix?

 

I suppose I could try looking up the geologic history of SoCal...
