Well if I wasn't doing what I currently am and lived a different life, my dream job would be to be an archaeologist. As a kid I always dug in the dirt, and still do really. I look down at the ground everywhere I am (you'd be surprised at what you may find). I collect rocks and things from everywhere we go.
It's funny actually thinking about it when we moved into this house the person that owned it before owned a tiling company and had all of their discontinued and old tiles out back behind the shop, some were very old, some newer, some beautiful and in all different shapes and sizes. They had been there for YEARS and my goodness there was a ton of them. They eventually had sunken into the ground over time. The house had been empty for several years when we bought it, so after some much needed tree trimming and underbrush cleaning to even get back there, I had my very own archaeological dig and dug up all of those tiles and found some other very interesting things! They have been and continue to be put to good use.
