This is a beautiful 1953 Chevrolet Corvette - one of the first Corvettes ever made. Powered by a "Blue Flame" in-line six cylinder engine.

When these first came out, I was too young to drive, and way too young to afford one, but I sure did lust after one!

Wonderful. Took me back to my C.J. Strike days in Mt Home, ID.

Friday, at school, JR got to use facial ageing software.

I thought they weren’t supposed to scare the children.??

Looks like the rock was originally sediment (sand), in which pebbles were embedded. Now all turned to stone and worn away by the elements over eons of time.

I recently watched a show where they dated the furthest reach of a glacier by dating the lichen ( similar to yours)
growing on the rocks of the moraine field.
They used the same lichen growing on headstones to determine how fast it grew. Smart, the date is written right on it!
Interesting stuff

Stevens,just a guess without seeing the rock from Costa Rica in detail but it looks like either an andesite or a basalt ,both lava and the white pearls could be any of the Zeolite group.

Dorney Park

Back in the days of Midget racing when the crowds would fill the stands two nights and two days each summer week.

Just some grilling in my backyard, I still enjoy woodfire cooking over propane, charcoal, and or a smoker. Too much time in the woods growing up, always made a fire to cook on.

My new water tower: we’re still trying to figure how to stand it up on end, but...
Near our outdoor range. A beautiful clear 68 degree day, today

I snapped these today while wandering the streets of Hanoi.

REO Speedwagon

No, not the band!

I don't know what year it is, but it's been a fixture at my in-laws for many, many years.

And another sad, old vehicle. An International Harvester with a boom:

 

[THE PILGRIM]

Some of you guys have probably seen, maybe driven one of these.
The very first one I ever saw was exactly like this one.
