I have passed this moss- and lichen-encrusted boulder of granite for 166 days now, and at last, I include its photograph.  My first love was geology, and one of the landscape features I miss most along Piney Woods Church Road is a fresh roadcut, a spot where a road has been blasted or bulldozed through the local bedrock.  This boulder is the largest geological specimen on my daily walk.  At several hundred million years old, it truly is a Rock of Ages.
