As a museum professional, I was extremely amused by this sign at St. Andrew's Castle (which I saw when I was in Scotland over the last couple of weeks. which I was, by the way.)
That's what I wanted to stare at today - the lovely wooden floor of one of the 17th century houses where I work. Just think of this: on a normal workday a couple of weeks ago, I was walking around on a floor that was built from trees that were cut down the year that William & Mary were married. That's crazy! And that's why I do history. :)
