This is a WOW shot, Debbie!! Gorgeous place, gorgeous comp, color and depth!! It's amazing one person could build a home this big for weekend purposes only, and then never live there! But then, if I tried to live there, I'd probably get lost and no one would ever hear from me again!! LOL!! I can think of a few people who might like that!! #11349026
