Goodness, I’ve been busy recently! I’m afraid that my blogging has been quite neglected… as it has been for the past few months.

However, things have finally calmed down a little now, so I’m going to make an effort over the next few weeks to share some geological pictures from some of my recent travels… and also possibly from some travels in 2014 that I neglected to blog about.

I’ll start with this quick “Monday Geology Picture” post. This week’s picture shows me sitting on a bench in front of some sandstone in Sydney, Australia. This particular sandstone displays some impressive cross-bedding. My husband took this picture when we were on a beachside walk near Bondi Beach back in March 2015. I wish that all benches had such great geological scenery in the vicinity!
