Fuck restoration. The lighthouse idea is great because it gives you carte blanche to become a creepy sea person... who lives in a lighthouse. I shouldn't need to mention that becoming a creepy sea person (who lives in a lighthouse) gives you free reign for any abnormal behavior; leering, excessive drunkeness, talking to yourself and constant nudity become suddenly acceptable - nay, expected.

"Constant nudity"? NY lake effect snow belt? Brrrrrrr. :haha:

I want an old firehouse. As an aspiring car collector, life could get no better: as much living space as parking space, and ceilings so high in the garage that you can put lifts in and double stack them.

*sigh* One day...

Agent, the guy I got one of my dogs from built a garage into the side of a hill. It was about 36 by 60 or 70, 11 ft ceiling, an 11 ft and an 8 ft garage doors, a man door and a small door out to the dog run so they could get fresh air and still watch the garage. On top was a rancher with the front door at ground level on the hill top. Oh, and part of the floor was dirt(modified stone) so he could pull his hobby bulldozer in the 11 ft door for service. :D

I want to live here:

So, what you're saying is that I'm "Move-in Ready?"

I wanna' live inna' tree house. Creepy tree house guy.

Me too.

If that's true, then theoretically, I should not be able to accomplish all those things without a lighthouse.

Call Mythbusters, I've got,...uh... am, the proof. :blush:

@Cloud. You'd need a cast of thousands to maintain that place.... hundreds just to dust.

dust? whassat?

all I'd need is a pool boy!

Here's some lighthouses you can stay in:
