  1. Hi Elise! I am the geologist that you met at Arthur's Seat. All of my pix from the park got corrupted and I was searching around to look at similar ones...imagine my surprise when I saw these! I recognized my thumb in one of the pix. Hope you are well.

  2. No way! Crazy! I'm sorry to hear that your pictures didn't turn out, but I'm glad you found these.
