Many years ago, I had "the best job" in that I had to look for gravel deposits and water courses for the Main Roads Dept throughout The Kimberley Region, WA. This gave me the chance to see things not too many people had seen....and people pay a small fortune to do today. How about finding amethyst crystals when looking for gravel, or finding Aboriginal artifacts by the watercourses; or the remains of the original Dunham River Station, as mentioned in the book "Kings In Grass Castles". Or, going over the very spot where the Argyle diamond mine is....without knowing wht was under my feet...
Even had to take the then Main Roads Commissioner's Aide on a barramundi fishing trip.
