House Hunting

He who is contented is rich.
                             Lao Tzu


Now that you know what Casey Key is like, why don't we go house hunting.  Sounds good to me!  This first one looks like a typical Florida house, with additional square footage, and a few other items that might put it into the $5,000,000 range or more...

The wood door you see on this next one is actually the "gate" to their yard.  And the following photo of the "window opening" is actually in their concrete fence and is all part of the same architecture...

I don't know about you, but I would love to take a peek inside of this next one and see the decor...

Yup, this one is really for sale.  I'm sure it's at least $3,000,000 or more.

I love the Key West looking houses, but I'm thinking this one is a bit out of our range.

In fact, as Mr. Cottage and I were driving on Casey Key, we spotted this little place and we determined immediately that we couldn't even afford this one.  It's probably at least $2,000,000 or more because it was on the Gulf...

I don't even think we could afford the rent on this little outbuilding we saw. 

On second thought, I'm going to pass up house hunting on Casey Key.  Even if we won the lottery, we still couldn't afford to live there because we wouldn't be able to keep up with the taxes.
