Maybe your spouse has a Mr. Peanut collection or he has a collection of old newspaper clippings or a collection of Starubucks mugs from all around the world, what if it turned into something much larger? How is it possible? Does that really ever happen? Guess what? It really does happen.
His real name is John Anderson and he lives in Washington state. For almost fifty years his hobby has been picking up things from beaches and over the last ten years he turned his hobby into, "John's Beachcombing Museum."
He loved adventure as a kid and he hasn't lost his passion for it. Some of the things he has found include a fossilized mammoth tooth from the Pleistocene era, dozen of Nike shoes that fell overboard during a storm in 1990, and items from the 2011 tsunami in Japan. He's also collected a bunch of messages that were found in bottles.
What is his advice for creating something much larger? He said, "Get up early in the morning and go to some remote beaches. Get a big building to put it in and hope your wife lets you haul it home."
He made his dream come true, how about you?
