    One of the many places I lived in the past was southern New Mexico.
    That is a place where you absorb geology into your skin just by
    living there. Everybody knows something about it, because it's so
    obviously around you just walking around in life. Uplifted plate
    formations, extinct volcanos and the aftermath of them, on and on.
    There was a place we used to go that had a textbook example of a
    basalt crystal formation, with a gypsum crystal cave - like a giant
    geode - within about 20 feet of it, and then the hillside next to it
    was loaded with fossils you could just pick up. First I learned my
    ABCs, then I learned Mohs scale....... Not so hard..
