Photo Hunt Twist(ed)

Check out this rock — it came out of a stone wall that Sweet Baboo was rebuilding. If anybody knows what might have happened to create the shape of this rock, please let me know. We have been scratching our heads trying to figure it out. The best we can come up with is that it somehow became twisted while it was molten and then cooled. But that’s just a guess, not being any kind of geologist.

    Wow, what a unique rock formation. Your guess sounds good to me.

    Or maybe it started as a small groove and over time, water grooved it out? I don’t know, water can do some powerful stuff over time.

    Wouldn’t it be cool if it were a meteorite or a moon rock - something from outer space in your own back yard. I love the idea, anyway.
