Geography of the Heart: Rockbeds

Once you leave the sidewalk up on the embankment, you soon discover that this isn’t a hospitable walk down the beach. This is a landscape with sizeable rocks making up the terrain. On our trek to the cliffs and the caves, it is slow and deliberate journey. One wrong move and you’ve twisted an ankle. One careless step and your foot has slipped off the slick uneven surfaces.

We think of a rock bed and we often think of rivers and the smooth rocks we find there. If you’ve ever crossed a creek or a small river, you know the difficulty and the danger is just as real.
