Allo, allo! We’re in Oregon with Lockwood for a few days, gathering the last geology of the season (unless we get to Montana later this month – stay tuned!). Day One: Marys Peak, which B hasn’t seen yet.
The sun was at the perfect angle for finding faults:
When we reached the summit near sunset, we could just see the sunlight glittering off the waters of the Pacific Ocean:
A bit later, we had sunset proper.
And on the other side of the world, the moon:
Tomorrow, we’re headed up to MacKenzie Pass, and possibly see some things I’ve never seen. Friday, if we’re lucky and the weather holds, we’ll be spending a bit of time at the Coast. And then, hopefully, we’ll return home to a living catsitter. Misha’s old, but she’s been feeling feisty lately…
Beautiful!! Great shot of the moon.
OOH! Pillow basalts!
Did you get to see the lunar eclipse this week?
You atheists! Always finding fault(s)!
Ooh, more pretty pictures! Dana, you’re generous to a fault! (I’ll get my coat.)
Oh, and, but, if you’re heading near Yellowstone, you could reach me at gmail, and I’d love to at least offer you and company a cuppa tea. Awesome fall weather here, currently, but there’s usually snow before Halloween. And there’s an awful lot of geology about.
