@LeafyEricScott another pic. Looks like sandstone maybe? But why so bouldery?
More boulders

Hey geologists, what's the deal with all these boulders in this spot on hwy 8 between the CA-AZ border and San Diego?

In case you haven't seen this bullshit yet, the government shutdown banner on usda.gov sites is despicable misinformation:

#trumpshutdown #uspol
Screenshot of a usda.gov website with an announcement banner reading: "The Radical Left Democrats shut down the government. This government website will be updated periodically during the funding lapse for mission critical functions. President Trump has made it clear he wants to keep the government open and support those who feed, fuel, and clothe the American people."

I'm still sightly caffeinated from yesterday, but I had a fun time at the northwest tea fest in Seattle with an old friend. #tea #seattle
Two bearded men, one with glasses (me) in front of a large yellow teapot that reads "Northwest Tea Festival"

White “tea” is still drying. 😁
A white plate will three piles of rolled up leaves. They are labeled “green”, “black”, and “oolong” written on tape on the plate

I grew this enormous Tulsi plant with water mostly from air conditioner condensation. My makeshift drip irrigation system only works when there’s enough humidity for the AC to actually drain water 🤣.
Large bushy basil plant in a pot in front of a brick wall. Some tubing is coming out of the wall and resting on a piece of aluminum siding that acts like a ramp, directing water from the tubing into the pot
