Shows the difference in scale between the US and the UK:-

They're both coastal features, on the opposite sides of the country... In the UK, it would never be called nearby 😁

Still though, it is amazing that we can see interactions between humans and animals from thousands of years ago, we can see their toeprints.

That's almost like Boston to NYC.

And yeah I guess some folks would describe that as nearby in the US.

The northeast is pretty small. That’s like a 4-5hr drive.
