Stone Corner – Sandstone Jan/Feb 1997
Terry Slaton
January 2, 1997
If you have never been to the sandstone quarry in Tenino, Washington, think about swinging by this spring. Tenino is on old Hwy 99. Take exit 88 from I-5, about 20 miles south of Olympia. It’s a small pocket quarry, operated by Marenakos Rock Center that produces tough, tight, dark gray sandstone that is good for building and carving.
The resident sculptor, Keith Philips, knows all the history of the quarry and has dozens of stories that will have you marveling and laughing at the same time. Better call ahead to make sure the docent is in. 360-264-6213.
We need some kind of descriptive text here.
