National Treasures in our Natural Wonders: Eastern North America with Rocky Romero & Sandi Phillips
Mondays 8:30—10:00 a.m.
Sun City Ballroom
In-person only
The Vagabonds, Rocky and Sandi, are back to complete the final year of the ‘National Treasures’ trilogy. This semester will highlight the parks and monuments that lie along the eastern edge of North America. We will study the geologic processes of Plate Tectonics, Island Arcs, Exotic Terranes, Orogeny (mountain building), and Volcanism west of the Atlantic Ocean and east of the Mississippi River. From the northern coast of Newfoundland to the southern tip of Florida we’ll discover that the national treasures of eastern North America are truly natural geologic wonders.
The Vagabonds, Sandi Phillips and Rocky Romero, met in 1996 in Angola while working in oil exploration for a major oil company. Sandi is a geophysicist and Rocky is an engineer. Both hold advanced degrees in their fields. Since retirement they have traveled the world studying the impact of geology on human history.
