I like to trot these out now and then–the “ringing rocks.”
Jambo, everybody, Mr. Nature here. I’ve visited this boulder field in Pottstown, Pennsylvania. Probably left behind by the melting of the Ice Age glacier, these rocks yield musical notes when struck with a hammer. No one knows for sure why they do that; and worldwide, there are only a very few places where this happens.
Somewhere there must be someone who has learned how to play “Mary Had a Little Lamb” or “Happy Birthday” on the ringing rocks.
God’s stuff–He’s left us so many things to think about!
Almost sounds Biblical! 🙂
You should see it for yourself, next time you’re anywhere near Pottstown, PA.
I’d like to…It’ll go on my bucket list!
And they don’t mind visitors striking the rocks to make music.
Alright! !

Amazing, and I can’t even imagine how or why this could happen.
It only happens at five (I think) places in the world, two of which are in Pennsylvania.
Hmmm, that says something profound, but I don’t know what it is.
If my memory’s right, there are two sites in Pennsylvania, and one each in Montana, Scotland, and Australia. If you can make any sense of that distribution–tally-ho!
