Hello Subscribers,This has been quite a March! As I mentioned in the last newsletter, I took a short trip to New Hampshire to hang out with a bunch of geologists, and that went well. They have certainly learned a lot about deep New England since I went to college at UNH fifty years ago. What I didn’t mention, because the impulse hadn’t struck me yet, was a short trip through the northern Coast Range with a night in Covelo to enjoy the countryside and return some rocks, including these.
