The Blowing Rock legendary rock in North Carolina. Because of the odd angle things tossed off have been known to blow back up. Taken in North Carolina.
On the corner of Eagle Rock Blvd. and Yosemite Drive in 1985. There is much classic Eagle Rock to be seen here. The Eagle Theatre is on the corner. Signs for KFC (now replaced by Burger King) and Eagle Rock Lumber can be seen further up Eagle Rock Blvd. The California Federal S&L building still says California Federal. I like the TV-Stereo Repair sign, too. Note banner for the Eagle Rock Celebration. The lady to the right is Eleanor Barlow, my aunt.

Chuck rocking it with Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly singing "Whole Lotta Shaking Going On." Jan 2017.
day 15 of the November photo challenge: pride. I inherited these from my grandpa D.O., my grandmother's second husband, who died several years ago. He was a doctor, a war hero, a mathematician, and a complete genius who somehow still found time to collect rock and mineral samples from all over the world. I am proud to have geological nerdery in common with him.

A Memorial to the home's builders, Albert and Gladys
Christensen
Travelers along U.S. Highway 191 in Southeastern Utah are amazed to discover this unique 5,000 square foot home and gift shop. Inside are fourteen fabulous rooms arranged around huge pillars. A fireplace with a 65 foot chimney drilled through solid sandstone, a deep french fryer, and a bathtub built to the rock are among the attractions.
Outside the living quarters is a rock and cactus garden and nearby are picnic tables and benches carved from stone.
In a 12-year period Albert excavated 50,000 cubic feet of sandstone from the rock. During this time he completed his famous painting "Sermon on the Mount" and his sculpture of Franklin D. Roosevelt on the face of the rock above his home.
When Albert died in 1957, the home was not complete. Gladys, in keeping with his wishes and lifelong dreams, continued to develop the home and gift shop into the world-renowned attraction it is today.
When Gladys passed away in 1974 she was laid to rest next to Albert in a small cove within the rock near the home. The simple stone markers were sculpted by Gladys.

This neolithic burial chamber is located at Shilstone Farm, Drewsteignton. The capstone is estimated to weigh around 120 tons. It fell in 1862 and was re-erected in the same year.
It is the best example of this type of chambered tomb in Devon. Similar examples of dolmens or quoits can also be found in Cornwall.
The Red Rock Amphitheater is located near Morrison, Colorado just west of Denver. It is set in a natural landscape. There is a disc-shaped rock formation behind the stage and a vertical rock angling outwards from stage right. Several large boulders form the wall on stage left. There is man made seating for 9,450. The earliest performance occurred in the early 1900's. Numerous performers have appeared at this venue including the Beatles on August 26, 1964. Tickets sold for under $7.00!

Another female form discovered in the Karoo. This time shaped in solid rock.
This is what happens when the rock sheds a shell instead of splitting, showing the lighter inner texture.
