The Bunkie

If you come down to visit T Huntington Boone the III and he says, sorry but you'll have to stay in the bunkie this weekend, your immediate reaction may be "Awwww, man."

But not for long. Then it will change to "Ohhhhh, man!"

This is not your father's bunkie.

Unless your father had a 4,200 square foot bunkie with in ground, screened pool and let's say, six bedrooms.

Now if I could have gotten a side shot, you'd see this building is about 100 feet deep, too, but the invisible fencing does more than just keep dogs in.

Now if you do get called over to the main house, you better have another "Ohhhhh, man!" ready to go.

Each of these Gulf front lots command a 18-20 million dollar price tag.

So this fellow went out and bought eight of them. Tore down whateever was there and built this 14,000 square foot behemoth. And, of course, the bunkie.

I think three lots were just to act as a buffer between him and the 18M$ derelicts next door.

What I find surprising is, in addition to the fact that I don't get run out of this town or shot at more often, not how rich some of these people are.

It's just how many of these rich people there are. Miles and miles and miles of these homes.

President Obama, if you are looking for some of your 788 billion bailout, you may want to start here......
