    I would be thrilled to be out hiking and come across that!

    Today I posted Bible murals, not quite as old as the fossils you speak of. :)

    What a pleasure it would be to come across this art piece during a hike. It really pays homage to the archeological history of this area. Thanks for participating again in Monday Mural. Hope there are more treasures you can post in the future.
