Biotite Gneiss

Georgia, Road Trip, States

  

We spent a most salubrious morning enjoying the fact that we didn’t have a things to do list with which to deal. Eventually we wandered out to explore this highest state park in Georgia. We did Geocache type known as an EarthCache and learned a number of things about the park including the fact that the black rock of the mountain is biotite gneiss. This evening we explored a bit of Clayton including scoring a handful of traditional geocaches. A pleasant day!

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
