Share and Voice: History Channel

As I was trying to think of something to write about for this share and voice assignment, I had the t.v. on the History Channel. I was watching re-runs of a show called American Pickers. Basically there are two guys who travel around the U.S. looking for old or rare items to purchase from people. They dig through old barns, garages, houses, and other places cluttered with what looks like useless junk to most people. They buy items from these people and clean them up and re-use or re-sell them. It is interesting to see some of the items they find and use. Many of the items are just laying around and serving no purpose, so it is cool to see them bring items back to life. Even though the items look old and are sometimes in rough shape, many of them are as good as new once they are cleaned up a little. If you haven't seen this show before I suggest you check out an episode or two. You can also view episodes online on the History Channel.

There is also a show on the History Channel called "American Restoration" where they restore old items. I have only watched part of an episode before but it looks very interesting.
