OK,

Here's a picture out from what will be my back door:

Beautiful place Nelson but seems somewhat low altitude.

And now an enthusiasm killing note…. Hate to say this though…
Did someone else mention Tsunami? Don’t take that peacefulness for granted... San Andres is a time bomb. I've heard that even 30 mts high waves could be expected when it gives up

OK, I'm back, with a new contractor, architect...

Eh hem, this is a diy forum you know. You should be getting out the tool belt and nail gun

I will give a call to USCG and ask its new helicopter port only
one minute away from the backdoor site ~ ^^

That's true, but I'm getting frail in my old age, and who's gonna
design amplifiers for you guys while I'm shooting nails?

How about the house of Pass that diyaudio.com built.!

We'll fire the nail gun while you design the amp...LOL.

Sea Ranch looks like a nice spot to relax.

Congrats Nelson!

Wow - what a beautiful place!

Since you're designing from scratch...

Perhaps Pass Records needs to be formed with all custom equipment in the chain...

Or

Perhaps a finely tuned room for evaluation of new equipment.

Do recordings of sherry slirping and beer guzzling sounds count for tax deduction purposes?

How about Dolphin, Whale or Pass bellows (coming from a certain room in the house)? LOL!

Again congrats!

Mr P,

how many nails do you charge for an amp design ?

You could invite all the TY nodders for nail shooting woodstock(stock of wood) at S Ranchero.
Granted, probably ruins the appeal of the real estate area and LinkyW is likely to fly in a death squad for your head. "Sea of Love" by Phil Phillips somehow pops up as fitting.

I'm sure several here are wondering what the blender-in gear for the Huevos Rancheros place will be ?

 

[Apogee]

Nelson, perfect for the new house...

Thought you might find this interesting if you haven't seen it:

Enjoy,

I would have to convince the Sea Ranch design committee
that I was installing a wind powered generator.

 

[carpenter]

ha-hah

 

[Apogee]

LOL!

I just figured since you were designing from scratch, you could accommodate for the back wave into the attic or something.

Perhaps the house could be a large folded horn resembling a large conch shell with the opening facing the water. That way, when jet skiers are being obnoxious at 8 am on a Sunday morning, you could just blast them...

Or...

You could always use it as a tsunami abatement device...

I would think the argument could be made that you were keeping with the natural environment...

Perhaps you could get an insurance discount.

 

[Nelson Pass]

Actually that particular view is a Seal breeding ground - no
disturbing the wildlife. The people beach is just to the left.

I've never seen a boat at Sea Ranch anyway.

 

[jacco vermeulen]

Blasphemy !

 

[Blues]

Blasphemy !

Jacco, it's a typo from NP...it's in Seal Ranch afterall.

OK you can see whales and boats at a distance offshore. Near
the shoreline, there is the occasional rubber raft, chased by
a shark.

Who needs TV!

 

[carpenter]

Whewwww.... for a second, I thought you were going to say "who needs music?"

How about the having soundtrack to Jaws playing at all times?

Out of consideration for my next door neighbor who is a
composer, I would want to play the theme from Dallas.

 

[jacco vermeulen]

Some may not object to being the neighbor.
