This rock caught my eye when I was at Lost Maples State Natural Area a couple of weeks ago. The black and white lichen (?) spots remind me of a Jackson Pollock style painting.

Neat rock. I like the unusual coloration. BTW, how was your LM trip?

Yeah...the black and white spots were pretty unique...no colors.

LM was good1 I did some hiking with a loaded pack to train for the S Rim trip. In the end, I didn't train enough!  eusa_shifty

Happy anniversary TAH!!
It was somewhere on the way to the ponds as I recall. I think it was on the right side of the trail on the way to the ponds.
  Enjoy LM!
