We recently took a trip to some familiar Paleozoic outcrops near Sonoita Arizona to look over some outcrops of Permian strata in the Canelo Hills. We have visited this site before, but had to leave do to inclement weather. We had the whole day to explore this time, and photographed a lot of super specimens including some very nice Gastropod fossils. There were also a lot of very nice Echinoids. We've also made a couple of short trips to the Tucson Mountains, and found some impressive Petrified Wood .
We’ve added a nice wallpaper from the beautiful town of Rocky Point Sonora Mexico. This view is from the wonderful Playa Bonita Resort looking almost due west. If yo like this one, be sure to check out all of the Past Wallpapers.

On the Net, we spotted these interesting Sites:
