blunderbuss2
(83 items)

This was an old house put together with wooden pegs across the street from me during hurricane Luis. No known damage while the rest of us were torn apart. 155 mph winds! After Luis passed, we stood in wonder at how this house withstood the onslaught. I put this sign on the place as a joke & it became a popular photo shoot for people. Just don't build them like they used to! Luis was in 95. Of course Americans have never heard of it since it didn't affect them.

    I think Luis felt sorry for it & left it alone.

    By the way, Wyatt Hotels grabbed a big chunk of Oyster Pond & renamed it Oyster Bay. Irritates us & we still know it by it's real name. Friend is visiting & I am being forced to party more than I have in years as the Heineken Regatta is on. I am not here for another few days. Think friend is going to cause my death.

    Roy, I've got a friend visiting during the Heineken Regatta & I'm going to be lucky if I survive! To answer your question, better have lots of money as it just across the road from the beach in Grand Case. Friend here for 1 week & will take 2 wks for me to recovery. Visiting friends have it in their heads that we just lay on the beaches & drink beer all day. My feet haven't been in the ocean in years!! Just another place to live.
    If those people were to sell that small piece to me as a friend, probably $200K.
