That is so cool! Like even tho those events took place so far in the past, they are still present to the eyes of those who are curious enough. I think I mentioned this before, but when I was in Uni studying tourism my professor who is also a tour guide could tell long, long stories about a single pile of sand. I think at some point he also had studied geology, so when you walk around and look at ordinary things with those eyes, out of blue your imagination wanders through time and through the evolution of the planet.
