Monday, February 2, 2009 - Rockhound State Park, Deming NM

Repurposed concrete adobe brick, Leasburg Dam State Park, Radium Springs NM, January 25, 2009

So that's what that is...

Some time ago I noticed this unusual "rock" delineating a trail in the park. This concrete-in-a-bag "rock." And wondered what it could have been made for. When a neighbor pointed out a damaged spot in one of the campsite shelters where a careless Rv bumped it I had one of those Aha! moments - it's a fake adobe brick - used to build a fake adobe shelter, plastered with fake adobe plaster. Of course.
