Enchanted rock is a large dome that sticks out of the earth made up of granite rock. Although all we see is this large dome, Enchanted Rock is actually on part of a large rock called a batholith (Texas park and wildlife). Enchanted rock is an exfoliation dome, which means it is made up of layers or sheets (Texas park and wildlife). Eventually the layers begin to break into smaller pieces and they begin to slide off of Enchanted Rock. Weathering and erosion are constantly occurring at Enchanted Rock some sources are frost wedging, temperature change and root wedging (Texas park and wildlife).

When it comes to the type of education that is needed for this career, a high school diploma or equivalent is required for most masons because you can’t work at a brick job without a high school diploma. It would also be beneficial for me to have some type of mathematics skills because brick masons would need to know how to read a tape measure, mix concrete mixture, cut bricks according to measurements and make sure brick joints are the right inches to lay them in the proper place. I have obtained some of these skills already through my brick trade. Some of the other things that I need to be skilled or have experience in are blinding building materials, such as brick, structural tile, concrete block, cinder block, glass block, and terra-cotta block

I chose to start my first song, Like a Dog Chasing Cars by Hans Zimmer from the very beginning and at 1:50:53 in the movie/ where he says “hang him from the bridge”. I feel like this scene had an astonishing amount of tension and suspense. Rob Roy was fighting for his life and as can be seen in the movie was willing to do anything to get away. In the song I chose it starts out soft but has a crescendo as the music continues. I thought this fit with the scene very well, because at first when Rob Roy jumps off the bridge it is more surprising than suspenseful, but then as the scene continues it becomes more stressful. In Like a Dog Chasing Cars there is an overall minor tone to the whole piece. Throughout the whole piece there is both a crescendo and accelerando which makes a building feeling. The building feeling is finally almost released when I end the piece and the soldiers walk away from Rob Roy. There is a recurring melody and steady background beat also helps pace the piece. The background for the most part is also very staccato while the overlapping pitches are legato. Also, near where I’m ending it there is a new sense of hopefulness, because the pitch of the notes is raised a little bit. Also, I think there might be a keychain to add to this new light tone. The hope connects to the movie, because there is hope that Rob Roy might actually escape. The music ends when the soldiers walk away from Rob Roy.
