Finally going to have a chance to live my dream of owning a home that has a bit of property. I'm in escrow on a 2200 SF home sitting on almost five acres. It's not exactly my style but the views sold me and it has a huge blank slate to make it my own. I plan on a big addition and a few other things that I will need a lot of help with. Here is a couple pictures of it now. Don't ask about that blue glazed tile roof we have a love hate relationship already.

Looks like a good start,and a lovely sunset view. My question is, whats with all the fences and walls out there..you have wild animal issues?..or are you starting a koolaid compound?..:rofl:
 
There is some critters but not much. I don't know why so many fences. Everyone has them. I guess we don't trust our neighbors around here.
 
Damn, I'm loving the garages. I'm sure the local Buddhist Temple will take those roof tiles off your hands. That looks like a real great find.

Pretty much all that except the shooting lane. Around here they kinda frown on that.

I do and it gets difficult at times. The good part is that I am wearing shorts and sandals today.
 
ow!!!...that hurt. its cold here, and rainy. sitting under a palm tree with a toddy would be MOST enjoyable right now!
 
I started one of my jeeps for the first time in months. I probably should have covered it before the 4" of rain we had.
 
for your house, a wreath of Franklin
