Rock Legends Cruise VIII - Facebook Group Photo 2020 - At Sea
This shot was taken for the Rock Legends Cruise VIII Facebook Page photo/banner. How do you get 100+ people to pose and smile? Like this! LOL All passengers were invited to attend (and be in it) and we were the 100+ that showed up! It was early morning after breakfast and before the very first concert of the day at 10:00 AM on the main pool-deck stage behind us. (Laura and I are at the bottom left corner). Photo was taken by the ship's photographer and down-loaded from their website with their permission. Glad we were a part of it. It was a lot of fun! Rock-On...My Classic Rock Family!

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum is a museum located on the shores of Lake Erie in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, United States, dedicated to recording the history of some of the best-known and most influential artists, producers, and other people who have in some major way influenced the music industry, particularly in the area of rock music. The museum is part of the city's redeveloped North Coast Harbor.
An interesting example of rocks (perhaps sedimentary?) that have undergone compression and folding. If they are indeed sedimentary rocks, each layer would have been deposited horizontally, so over time they've been raised into the vertical as well as apparently undergoing compression and finer folding as well. Any geologists care to comment? The formation as seen is about 3m high.
Katy Pedley's explanation below details the interesting background to these rocks. I'm not sure whether they've survived the November 2016 earthquake that so badly affected Kaikoura.
Had a coincidence yesterday (December 1, 2020). I joined a Facebook group called West Texas Rocks early in the morning. As soon as my membership was approved, I asked the members a million questions about painted rocks. At lunchtime, I stepped outside the Citizens Tower building where I work and found this awesome painted rock! I registered it with the group as soon as I could.
When people ask me what these are, I tell them dinosaur poop. Not really. There are several locations in Kansas where one can find these rock formations. But Rock City has the most.
Physical characteristics[edit]
The large spherical boulders in Rock City are giant calcite-cemented concretions, typically called "cannonball concretions" because of their shape. They range in diameter from 3 to 6 meters (10 to 20 feet) with the average diameter being 3.6 meters (12 feet). These concretions lie 2 to 8 meters (6.6 to 26 feet) apart.[8] Similar giant calcite-cemented concretions have also been found in a quartzite quarry within Lincoln County and in exposures of the similar age sandstones in Utah and Wyoming.[8][9]
These boulders consist of well-sorted, medium-grained sandstone, which is tightly cemented by calcite. The sandstone consists of more than 95 percent quartz sand. About 20 percent of the original sandstone, mostly feldspar grains, has been replaced by the calcite. Pyrite, which is now oxidized to goethite, occurs within the calcite cement of these concretions as microscopic crystals and very small, knobby concretions. The pyrite concretions typically are about 30 cm (1 foot) in diameter. Also, included within these calcite concretions are smaller calcite concretions, which have been engulfed by the growth of the larger concretions.[8]
The host rock, which contained these spherical boulders, consists of well-sorted, medium-grained, highly porous, and friable sandstone. Being only weakly indurated by small amounts of iron oxide, sometimes seen as Liesegang rings (banding) at Rock City, it is considerably softer and very much more easily eroded than the calcite concretions. The sand comprising it accumulated within a river channel, which is part of the Dakota Sandstone, which accumulated within a low-lying coastal plain. Differential cementation and later erosion of cross-bedding inherited from the riverine sand, in which these concretions occur, created the "ornamentation", which these concretions exhibit.[8]
In the past, the origin of the spherical boulders found at Rock City had been erroneously interpreted as glacial boulders, corals, concretionary masses of limestone, and normal erosional remnants of sandstone. Shaffer[5] was the first person to recognize them as calcite-cemented concretions. From a detailed examination of the mineralogy of these concretions and the carbon and oxygen isotopes of the calcite cement comprising them, McBride and others[8] concluded that they formed as the result of diffusion of calcium through and precipitation of calcite within the sandstone containing them after being deeply buried. The carbon and calcium comprising these concretions came either from marine limestone, shells, anhydrite, or some combination of these in addition to bicarbonate derived from oxidized methane from strata outside of, but hydrologically connected to, the Dakota Sandstone. After the formation of the concretions, differential erosion of the considerably softer sandstone surrounding them exposed as free-standing boulders.[8]
This chap was about to descend over the side of Millstone Edge in the Peak District before the rain came over - which it did about 5 minutes after he went over.
Oi meninas!

Waterfall along Rock Creek, which is a tributary of Big Piney Creek, in the Ozark National Forest. The creek lives up to its name, here the waterfall hits a huge boulder sitting in the middle of the creek.
It was about two miles of hiking to reach this spot, and as soon as we got here a bunch of country guys in 4-wheelers and side-by-sides drove up and parked in the middle of the creek right above the waterfall. We sat and waited while they stood around and drank some beers. Eventually they left and we were able to get a few pictures without them in the way.
The early morning sun has found its way deep into the Feather River Canyon to illuminate the MNPFR as it works its way west near the Rock Creek Bridge.

Big Rock Park is comprised of numerous natural rock formations along the Paluxy River near downtown Glen Rose.
I used Tonality which I have as a Photos extension. These extensions certainly make this basic Mac software a lot more powerful.
A full-length shot of Rock House in Hocking Hills State Park near Logan, Ohio. We patiently waited on the (very nice) crowd to leave the cave for a 30 second exposure. The colors in the black hand sandstone cave were fantastic.

ROCK YOUR RACK 2022
October 1, 2022 - October 16, 2022
10th Annual Rock Your Rack Event is on the way!
Breast cancer is one of the leading health crises for women. 12% of women, and an every increasing percentage of men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is currently no known cure for breast cancer, and its early diagnosis is critical to survival.
Models Giving Back is pleased to present Rock Your Rack, an annual fundraising event combining the best of SL Music, Art, Dance and Fashion to support the work of breast cancer charities and raise awareness for early detection which is critical to a positive outcome for this devastating disease.
This year's sponsors include Blue Rose Creations, Cute N Cuddly Breedables, BOSLArts, Dark Star Radio, Designs by Soosy, Kultivate Music Management, LOPO District, and Fire Within.
Thank you to our Media sponsors as well for getting the word out: BOSL Magazine, Equalizer Magazine, Grid Affairs, Kultivate Magazine, Hostcrate, Media SL, ModeLS Magazine, The SL Enquirer, and XRadio SL.
This year's event will support the National Breast Cancer Foundation which provides free mammograms, education, support and early detection services to anyone in need.
Designers will be providing limited edition creations with 100% of the sales of those items going to the National Breast Cancer Foundation along with a fine selection of the newest, exclusive and most popular designs for your shopping pleasure. And, of course, the very popular 10L hunt will be up and running in the 50+ different designer booths and 35+ different artist booths.
For a complete listing of events and more details on this year's event, please visit the website: rockyourrack.wordpress.com
The event officially opens to the public on Saturday, October 1, 2022 at 12:00 am SLT and will close at 11:59 pm SLT on Sunday, October 16, 2022.
Together we can make a difference!

About the National Breast Cancer Foundation
The National Breast Cancer Foundation was founded in 1991 by breast cancer survivor, Janelle Hail. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1980 at the age of 34. At the time of her diagnosis, there was little information about the disease, and she was forced to make a decision about her health with few options. After her treatment, Janelle made a commitment to help women around the world by educating them about breast cancer and the importance of early detection. NBCF’s mission is to save lives through early detection and to provide mammograms for those in need. This mission includes increasing awareness through education, providing diagnostic breast care services for those in need, and providing nurturing support services.
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith (commonly referred to as simply Rock 'n' Roller Coaster) is an enclosed steel roller coaster ride at Disney's Hollywood Studios at the Walt Disney World Resort and at the Walt Disney Studios Park in Disneyland Paris. The Florida ride opened on 29 July 1999 and is located at the end of Sunset Boulevard, next to The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attraction. - wiki
"The Sheep Rock unit contains an amalgam of colorful strata and complex geology. From Cretaceous conglomerates to the flood basalts, the geologic features in this portion of the monument are a spectacle to behold."
"The predominant exposures of green rock seen on Sheep Rock are a multitude of reworked layers of volcanic ash. The rich green color of the claystone was caused by chemical weathering of a mineral called celadonite. This happened millions of years ago as water moved through the alkaline ash beds under high pressure."
"The Sheep Rock Unit is located on Highway 19, near the towns of Kimberly Oregon and Dayville Oregon. Geological formations found in the Sheep Rock Unit, including the green claystone layers of the Turtle Cove Member, date back 32-7 million years. New vertebrate fossils are continually being exposed through natural erosion."
