Michael Grab's beautifully balanced rock sculptures defy gravity.
Without any sort of ahesive element or material.
Michael featured here in 2012 and he continues to amaze with his playful love affair with
elements of nature.
There's more about him here too.
Balance, it's what we all need in our lives...

Blanche Russell's Unique Stone House In Arizona's Marble Canyon...

Blanche Russell, sometime in 1927, was driving in the desolate Balancing Rocks, Vermilion Cliffs area around Arizona's Marble Canyon when her car broke down.
So the not to be fazed lady simply camped there overnight.
Deciding she loved the splendid isolation, the solitude, the scenery and the endless blue sky, she and her husband Bill bought some land and in the 1930's established a camp and a small trading company at Soup Creek and proceeded to build this unique stone house and its' attendant outbuildings.
I was out wandering as one does and found it featured on Tiny House Swoon.
Nowdays Blanche and Bill's house is called Cliff Dwellers Lodge and welcomes visitors with its delightfully quirky design.
Don't you just love the window detail...
