Love it! It's got pizazz! :clap:

That's what a beach cottage should be! :biggrin:

p.s. The more I look at this, the more I like it! Dibs when the economy tanks!

I agree with scooterbug, looks like a perfect beach cottage. Is it available?

No realtor sign there yet...

Maybe it's going to be a rental.

The question should be, is it a private beach or public:clap:

That&#039;s an easy one... see the fence?

Even if the occupants post a sign, they are probably going to be too small to scare most folks.

"Honey, I Shrunk the Vacation Renters"   :eek:

[CENTER]Treefrog ~ loved the photo :clap: It reminded us of a mini-version of our shack we used to have in Palos Verdes, California. It was made of all found objects and was an extra special love shack. It was quite a hike down a cliff to get to the shack, so only people who really loved the beach stumbled upon it. They added to it and left notes & drawings & poems and such. It survived the constant land movement & tides in the area and was still standing after 2 years when we left California. We would love to know if it's still there today! If anyone is every going that way, let us know and we will give you the location to check it out ....
