Thanks a lot!!

Thanks

Many Thanks, Zhann!

Thanks Zhann Your stone textures are great, where did you take the pic's?

Catlin, pics are from around the house we just bought, major rock formations including lava flows (ancient), it's a whole new area to explore! Believe it or not, I now live in a small town called Parachute, Colorado...:)

Zhann: Is that anywhere near Mount St.Helens? (Lava flows)

Sorry B, Mount St Helens is in Washington State, however the Colorado River Valley is very geologically active, hot springs, also there's a coal seam that's been on fire for almost 75 years, it started the Glenwood Springs fires last summer when it broke surface...Bit of history here, the Glenwood Springs Sanitorium was where Doc Holiday spent his last days, his grave is not far from downtown Glenwood Springs...:)

I think they made a movie about those coal fires....

I remember something about the Colorado river valley from when I was studying geology. I think that the layers of rocks along the valley were created by massive lava flows, some which were hundreds of feet deep and as the river cut through these layers can be seen. If this same kind of volcanic outpouring were to happen again then I think much of Colorado would become uninhabitable. Also, did you know that Yellowstone national park contains one of the largest caulderas in the world. It is estimated that it blows it's top every 650,000 years and guess how long it has been since the last eruption. If this cauldera erupted it could cause worldwide effects like that of an asteroid hit........gives you something to think about. Catlin

Yup, we are but a blink in geological time...I'm visitng one of the lava flows near Grand Junction within the next week or two, hope to have some cool textures to upload...:)

Can't wait to see the pic's Zhann. 8)
