A very interesting collection of rocks there. I have found the top one on our beach, I think it is some kind of volcanic lava leftover.

Love rocks and their history. Nothing is better than Arkansas and Missouri rocks. Well, let's say...they rock.

Excellent photos, Gail! You do well with closeups.
Future geologist - doesn't that make you want to bury some really strange stuff in your backyard?

Dreaming said...

Ah, yes, won't the archeologists (geologists, too) wonder about the 'ancient people'?!

Great collection Gail . . . . Art, in and of itself!

There are so much history behind each of these rocks!

Such a beautiful collection of texture and color! And yes, it is fun to think how future generations will puzzle over this mysterious rock outcropping, imagine the tales they might tell! :-)

You found wonderful rocks, Gail!
One looks like petrified coral and the third one looks like some sort of quartz. :-)
The second one is strange and beautiful, while the last one is wonderfully interesting. :-D

Thanks so much for sharing your finds with us. ♥
