parallel (streams are approximately parallel to each other) C. trellis (streams meet at right angles) b. What is the stream pattern exhibited at the Problem 6 placernark? a. dendritic (streams resemble veins in a leaf) 6. radial (streams radiate from a central high point) d. rectangular (streams have right-angle bends) c. parallel (streams are approximately parallel to each other) b. What stream pattern is exhibited in this area? a. Check and double-click the problem folder, Segments of several streams have been highlighted to emphasize where the streams follow different intersecting fracture sets. dendritic (streams resemble veins in a leaf Note that some streams (e.g., the stream highlighted in cyan) exhibit a rectangular drainage pattern as they follow intersecting fracture sets and/or resistant rock layers. What is the overall general stream pattern exhibited at this location with tributaries (thin blue lines) flowing into the main trunk stream (thick blue line)? Hint: Pay particularly close attention to the tributaries flowing from Shade Mountain (SE side). Check and double-click the Problem 4 folder. dendritic (streams resemble veins in a leaf) 4. What is the stream pattern exhibited at the Problem 3 placemark? a. See your textbook for diagrams of stream patterns. SE Streams can develop a variety of patterns depending on the rock type and structure that underlies them. In which direction are the streams experiencing headward erosion? a. As seen from this viewpoint, in which direction (right or left) are the streams lengthening? a. Headward erosion allows streams to lengthen in the upstream direction. In this view from Grand View Point in Canyonlands National Park, three stream branches (the middle one is labeled with the placemark) are experiencing headward erosion.

I even have a blue I would like to use - Benjamin Moore Palladian Blue - a historic and very lovely blue indeed. Whatever its origin, I would love to do this in my lanai in my new home. This light blue even has a name - Haint Blue. Theories abound as to its origin - it extends daylight hours because it looks like the sky, it wards off evil spirits or "haints," it keeps away bugs and spiders who confuse the blue ceiling with sky. Well this painting porch ceilings blue has been a Southern tradition for generations. Check out this wonderful example above with Chinese Chippendale railings, antique wicker, and potted palms. Many of you might have noticed the trend of painting porch ceilings blue. Having spent most of my adult life as a resident of Virginia, vacationing with my family every summer in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and now as a full time resident of Florida, I am delighted to learn about another wonderful Southern tradition.
