Gone

The first time I visited Spooner Cove in Montaña de Pro State Park I noticed this neat little photo-worthy arch.

When I returned the other day… Wait. What? I’m pretty certain there was an arch here.

Well, just before Christmas in 2021, after a huge storm, it collapsed. Nature giveth and Nature taketh away. It even tooketh away the fallen pieces.

A rock outcropping resembling an old man’s face was such a big deal in New Hampshire that they used it on license plates, highway signs, and the state quarter. But it fell in 2003.

So if there are natural wonders you’ve been wanting to see someday, don’t count on them always being there. (I'm lookin’ at you, Delicate Arch.)
