30 Day Photo Meme: Day 26

[jedibuttercup]

I went with old as in "millions of years" with this one. The first's my favorite, but I was awestruck by the others, too. This world has so many amazing things in it.

Day 26 - a photo of something old


Sue the T-Rex! How could I go through Harry Dresden's city and not pay her a visit? (July, 2009)


Limestone formations in the big room in Carlsbad Caverns. (October, 2013)


The San Rafael Reef: I'd never heard of it before we drove through it, but when they talk about 'the bones of the earth', this 30-mile long formation of tilted sandstone layers will be what I always think of now. (October, 2013)

Sue would be at the top of my Must See list, too. I remember reading articles on her and watching things on TV after she was first discovered and kept track of all of the legal wrangling. As soon as Butcher wrote that the older a body was, the more power it had, I just knew (okay, hoped) that Harry was going to reanimate Sue when he was in the Field Museum and I squeed out loud. Yeah, I get a lot of funny looks when I read in public...

If you don't get funny looks occasionally when reading in public, then you're not a very invested reader, IMHO. :)

Sarah still teases me when we happen to be reading in the same vicinity and I finish a book, because - and it's really not a conscious thing, I only notice I'm doing it because she laughs - if it's a good book, I always close it and kiss the back cover. That's how she knows when I didn't enjoy a book. :)
