Dang, that's a hot mess, isn't it?

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

My favorite spot is in that third picture...right in the middle at the top of the cab. It's got a little bit of everything going on right there in that one spot!

That is a wind looking stone! It has a bunch of everything in it. Honestly I wouldn't know where to start with the trim saw on this one. I love the "East" half of the last picture though. Amazing.

hummingbirdstones wasn't sure whether to call this chaotic breccia or brecciated chaos. I do believe you summed it up perfectly with 'Hot Mess'

NDK not a local find.. something that followed me home from an estate sale some time back.

Thanks everyone! (cheers)
