Unusual Rock

With the lousy weather forecast for today, I decided to take yesterday off and put some miles on  hiking while enjoying the fall colors . The picture of the swamp above made for a nice view  while I waited in hopes of a moose  wandering through. The only wildlife activity was a King Fisher and a female Wood Duck..
Sitting in anticipation this rock caught my attention.
One could conclude that this be might a headstone marker?
I didn't see any markings on the stone. " Google" didn't give up any information.
The shoreline had areas with color.The  small spot on the left in the water , just out from the point with the reddish orange tree is a boat. Probably one of the last  for the season. Today is the last day for the 2014 Quabbin fishing season  and a lousy weather at that.
Not much wildlife activity so I attempted to get a pic of this Double-crested Cormorant flying by.
The smell of grapes was still in the air. Pretty much all the low hanging fruit has been picked or eaten.
