To covet or not to covet, that is the question



I have been enthralled with the scenery. Then I started thinking about the people that had this scenery absolutely every day of their life! "Ho. Hum. Another day in paradise. Oh look, another sunset/sunrise over the ocean. Yawn." So I took some pictures of the houses that are right on the ocean. ALL of them have sweeping ocean views. Oh, but at the end, I took pictures of our little B&B and our deck. You'll be able to tell, b/c it goes to very simple instead of unbelievable. You may not really get a kick out of this, but I like to imagine the people that live in these houses.
Oh, one that is for sale, and it really is a dump is asking for a mere $4,500,000. I suppose these nice ones that I took pictures of are probably in the neighborhood of 2 to 3 times that much. It blows my mind. I wonder if I had that much money if I would feel guilty or would I feel smug. I'm guessing smug. Good thing the Lord doesn't tempt me...He knows it would be more than I could handle!

And to think that some of them are probably just "vacation" homes. Oh, it kills me!

It really is beautiful. The water is so blue! It seems like Steve-o is already saying "ho hum another day in paradise." I don't want him to go to Provo!
