I personally am a big fan of the tumbled travertine tile, just have to make sure it is well sealed after it's installed. It's easy to work with too, far easier to cut because I think it's basically limestone.
Yes, I agree. I have four tile floors and one tile counter top under my belt. My wet saw and tile breakers still work. Wifey says "You're retired, pay a pro to do it."

I'd rather go fishing and come home to a finished project anyway.
