Cid, North Carolina

I spent the weekend in a place that used to be called Cid, North Carolina, but now it seems that it is just a wide spot in the road somewhere between Lexington and Denton. It was a beautiful weekend. It was a great weekend where we were reacquainted with some old friends and made lots and lots of new ones at one of our annual church conventions. One of the really fun things about the place was that many of the rocks found in that area are naturally formed cubes. I am not just talking about cubes that are kind of in the form of a cube, these are rocks that are about 20-30 millimeters to the side and form precise sharp little 90 degree corners. Amazing. Christian said he remembers reading about rocks like that in one of his geology books. I hope he can find something about them, because it looks almost like these are not natural, but just little gray rock dice cubes without any dots on them.
