In reply to mostly quiet irregular reader. I wonder how old it is? We saw a ton of interesting lichen on that trip, on trees as well as rocks.

In reply to Marja-Leena Rathje. Yes, I don't think Rachel and I are quite the only people with an avid but completely secular and aesthetic interest in such things.
