I've often considered small "improvements" to my back yard, such as roads and ramparts... and more seriously perhaps a Roman-period kiln. But the pipe on that dream is getting longer and longer, since I'm never home from college long enough to do more than turn over a few shovelfuls of sod. If you had a nice piece of land somewhere, you could start with a small rural settlement, just a hut, then another, and once you've got enough people you could start on more substantial things. <p></p><i></i>
