Umbrella Rock


Know what's keeping that rock from just sliding on back down the mountain? Nothing. Or maybe some science magic hybrid spawned from that man's bowtie.

I wonder where on Lookout Mountain this is? I don't remember it. Those ladies have their legs nicely crossed at the ankles as they have been taught to do. I find this lovely.

Oh! Rock City! Maybe I DO remember it. I seriously doubt they let you get on it anymore though. Seriously doubt it.

The person that put it online said: "There seems to be a whole lot of people who have this shot in their family albums. They were all taken from the same angle, and they were taken from the 1890's until the 1930's. I wish I knew the story behind that." So that's probably when Rock City shut down that little posing idea.

I should add a "hell no" tag.
