Greetings, Fellow Earthlings! Here at the Mother House many of the floors are made from stone. In the hallway as you walk past the chapel to the dining room and several other places throughout the building you can see fossils in the floor! Below are two photos of them. The first photo is of one of the slabs of stone' the second is a little closer. At first, I thought the floor was just dirty until I took a closer look. Yep, those are fossils! The part of the building in which they’re located is about 200-225 years old. The stones are way older than that! I have noticed fossils like this in other places, too - like at the Pantheon and Notre Dame. I just think it is cool to see fossils all over the place.
Until next time --
Sr. B.
