“In Norway, every rock is covered with lichen,” the geologist told us. This is due to their moist climate and regular rainfall, he explained.  We are spoiled in the Southwest USA for the amount of rocks exposed as a result of our dry climate.  He was one of the interesting people we met this weekend in Boulder City, Nevada.  The show finishes up today.  It has been fun.  The pic is one of the many cacti we saw blooming in the desert this week.

Happy Mother’s Day to all.  Thank God for Mothers!
