6. Wonderful! Here are two from this time last spring at Halibut Point
on the Massachusetts coast, on a cool, mostly overcast day. There's an old granite quarry and a lighthouse there, and the granite formation, which comes right into the water, has long been a landmark for ships. The granite itself is in statehouses and banks in many places even quite distant. The stone is very old, having solidified before the evolution of dinosaurs, most likely on a volcanic island in what was then the southern hemisphere. There is a timeless, primeval look to the water meeting these rocks, and no wonder.
