just365days: United Kingdom - 365 Days: I was moving some things into the attic today and came across my fossil collection. For a good 10 years of my life I was obsessed with everything prehistoric. I really wanted to be a paleontologists but I never really knew what path I needed to take to get there. Looking through the stuff made me feel rather nostalgic. I remember taking family trips over Easter, where we’d go down to the Yorkshire coast and scour the beaches for fossils. I was totally rubbish at this but my dad found an ammonite in a rock nodule. I ended up taking it to the museum on Chambers Street to have it opened and along the way I was given a tour of their paleontology department and the archives where they kept (hid) all the cool stuff. The world is full of interesting things and I think sometimes we forget that we live in a pretty amazing place…20th January 2022 -- source link
