Weekend in Paradise.

4-28-07 PARADISE, PA: I am here in SE PA near Lancaster and the Susquehanna River for a geology field trip. We are seeing metamorhposed sedimentary rock formations that have been tortured, cooked, faulted, crushed, folded, split, deformed and abused. The region is very hilly, rural changing to suburban, farms intersperced with housing developments. One thing a bit odd about the region is that the automobile has achieved only partial acceptance.


April is finishing up after delivering almost 12 inches of rain, half of that total on the 15th.

New blooms: redbud, virginia blue bell.

violets
