I think trees especially are cool. What was once a tiny seed that could fit at the tip of your finger grows into a massive tower that you can barely see from top to bottom. They house entire ecosystems within their roots, bark, and branches, and they will probably outlive you and your entire family. Combined.

Old growth trees are something everyone needs to see at least once. They are breathtakingly huge.
