..Close Enough For Rock 'n Roll..

"Sent a telegram today, Tomorrow you'll be on your way.. Could be Memphis or L.A., No questions, just get out and play. Wake up call to catch the plane; You know you're on the road again.. Someone's bangin' in your head, Why did you get so late to bed...?" Ha, ha .. the reason WHY I got so late to bed? I was watching another Arizona sunset, for crying out loud. This time it was The Sail and The Fin. Sedona’s canyon walls show nine layers of stone from different geological periods spanning hundreds of millions of years. There are six layers of sandstone, two thin layers of limestone and atop all of these, one igneous layer of basalt stone. The different sandstone and limestone layers were formed by wind blown sand dunes, or mud deposited by inland seas. The red colours of some of the sandstone layers are the result of iron oxide staining the rocks over great periods of time. The uppermost igneous layer was deposited by volcanic eruptions 14.5 million years ago, once covering the entire Verde Valley several meters deep in lava.
