New Mexico Rocks on Nature Friday

Happy first Nature Friday in June!! 
Today, we're going to look at some rock formations we passed during our last road trip!

On the way to Lin's Mini Acres, we drove through mountains like this one....

...or ones like this with flat tops.

...and cool curly-q rocks like this!

Mama took this picture because she liked the flag and cross on the top of the hill. When she looked at it later though, she saw the table top like rocks in the foreground!


When we were on the way home from Lin's Mini Acres, we drove a different route, on the west side of New Mexico. Wow, the rocks look different out there!

They just sprout out of the ground!

We would be driving along, snoozing away, when we would here Mama squeel about another rock!

Daddy told her that the volcanic activity back in the olden days....

...helped to "grow" these big rocks!

I don't know how they all were made, but they sure are pretty!!!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
                        
I hope you enjoyed seeing the different kind of rocks in New Mexico, we sure had fun looking at them!

We hope you all get out and see some nature this weekend!
