All terrific....I have seen the second two, but not the Anderson Cooper pieces...I LOVE MATT DAMON & HIS MOM! LOL!
To answer your question....almost ALL of the Tile that George uses was retrieved from Dumpsters...!! A certain percentage were bought, but it's a small amount in comparison to ALL the Tile he has used over these 44 years.... It seems that Tile Stores throw stuff out when it becomes 'unpopular' or unsellable for whatever reason....Well, none of it goes to waste. George has created this incredible House Of Tile Art with enormous amounts of tile that has all been discarded....! AMAZING, isn't it?

(Also, from the basic homepage one can click on the "book report" tag on the middle right and scroll down a few posts. Or use the blog search box for The Given Day. Good luck!)

Actually, for all the traveling I get to do, I've been only a handful of places (grateful tho I am for those). I love, love, love Paris, but it's all I've seen of France. And Switzerland I've not seen. Would love to spend MUCH more time in both places.
Our beautiful old home is an architectural style known as American Foursquare. These houses were popular from the 1890s to about...
