WEATHERING 



These images are of a stone wall that supports a small tunnel under some train tracks near the Stenner apartments and near the intersection of foothill/California. These pictures were taken  4/10/26 at about 1pm. 

1. Given that this wall is located in a tunnel and is supporting the railroad which has been here for I would say 150+ years I think the weathering was mainly done by the past but is still happening due to some moisture from the drainage water that passes through and rain. 
2. I think that the type of weathering done here is both bits chemical and physical. (chemical from water/moisture that can get on the walls and flow, and physical form the potential abrasion and general wear that comes from supporting the railroad for so long.)  
3. I just think the weathering has occurred through mainly water flow , wind, and general wear. (you could make a point about freezing and thawing on really cold rain night but I wouldn't know) I know the pictures can be a bit hard to see but the graffiti sort of helps us here to see how the wall isn't a flat smooth surface but instead quite bumpy in some areas and has holes/cracks in other areas. (which are sometimes signs of weathering) 

(insert selfie here i forgot to do so before so I will edit it in tomorrow)

  This will be some of my journey entries  I will be typing them though     #1 Making fun of my lunch Nov 10 If someone were to make fun of my lunch I would not really care for it too much since I`m the one who likes it and enjoys it. If I want to eat the food I like then let me eat it who are you to tell me what and what not to eat. If they cared so much and what I ate they should make me lunch themselves if that's what they want. #2 Zombie Apocolypse  Nov 17 If it were the case of a zombie apocalypse and I were to know months in advance then I would find a bunker and stockpile food and supplies and good fortification to prepare to defend it. Then find a way to get some guns and lots of ammo for them to hold back the undead. I would also get a sharp and durable melee weapon because ammo won't last forever. Then I would get some friends of mine to help out. And last I would train months in advance to get fit enough to outrun the zombies.  #3 First impressio...

  Journal entries 5                                                               DEC 4      Well if I was merged with the person I hated the most it would be awkward, to say the least. It would be even more awkward if the person you dislike does not feel the same hatred. At first, we would freak out as most people would when Physically merged with another human. The following thing to do is to try to find out why this happened and how to fix it. Then after all hope is lost throw everything aside and converse since you'll probably be stuck for a while.   Dec 7     I think people resort to intensive violence just either out of pure hatred for another or to send a serious message. Like what happens in pearl harbor these people don`t want to get messed with so they sent the message with an att...

  The Final Reflection                                                                  Alright, where should I start off...           Well to begin with this WHOLE year has been very strange. Not only were schools closed but there is a deadly virus spreading. But lucky enough for us we have an online school "hooray", I was just expecting for everything to be on canvas but this class caught me a bit off guard with the whole Blogger thing. I've never had used a blogger so it took me a little to understand. It also was new to me that this class had very few due dates which felt nice at first but were a tiny curse in the future. Also, the teacher is very nice and chill Shout out to Dr.Preston.    What I found most meaningful in the experience we had is how everyone was so nice and th...
