OUR HOUSE, EAST COAST OF FLORIDA
This is a multi-level we designed and built ourselves.
3 bedrooms, a loft study, 2.5 bathrooms and 2 car garage.
It stood well against all 4 hurricanes in 2004 including a high end category 3, with only minimal shingle damage.
In the spring of 2010 we have replaced the shingles with metal roofing.

Each Christmas we put lots of lights on our house. We have done this almost every year since moving in.
Here is our house all decked out in lights for Christmas 2007.
We had 10.000 lights all under computer control and set to music that was sent via a transmitter to your car's stereo.
We had 4 different songs and the show lasted about 10 minutes.
In 2008 we went to 15,000 lights and 5 songs. In 2018 we had 30,000 lights and programmed up 9 songs!

We try to take at least two vacations a year. One, a drive/fly destination vacation, the other a cruise. We have been on over 25 different cruises. And we are down to just 12 states in to visit in the USA. We have visited over 12 different countries.
A LITTLE ABOUT MY HAM RADIO WORK
Not much can be said for my
ham radio activity lately. 6 meters is always fun. I have a 50 ft crank
up tower. I always keep it
lowered when not in use. This is after being hit by lightning in 1997, I'm very cautious.
