You need to scratch it up well and wear off that label so it can get respect.

Lovely crystals in that dike. I had no idea you could get crystals so large in that material. Is this rock then a kind of basalt porphyry?

Glad you two are having so much fun — and flawless weather!

Great blog and photos! It looks like you and Megan are really enjoying yourselves. Please give her my best regards. Also, a sample of the basalt with the olivine and plagioclase phenocrysts would be nice to see. Did you find any zeolite-filled vesicles? Have fun, work hard, and most importantly be safe.
