Trey -- It's fantastic place - as long as you don't have to make a living. For us - it's just so easy. It's a resort... the jobs here are working in restaurants - ski lift operators - or services etc. There's no "industry" other than home builders and they're small and "custom". Town (Ketchum) is under 3000 people full time - so being a Lawyer etc just ain't like being in the big town.

They say 18 months to completion. That of course doesn't take into account delays due to weather. This is all well known in advance and when you're living in a town that is at 6000 feet of elevation - weather changes dramatically and quickly! WE all had hoped to keep framing thru "winter" but winter has been great this year with good snow.

Thanks Greg. Given the size and level of build, 18 -24 months sounds rather reasonable to me. Hope it goes smoothly for you.

I knew I recognized this car:

That would be the one.....


I thought momentarily about buying it "back" (sold it to a buddy who is a HUGE Barrett Jackson seller) - who took it to a Mecum auction - and a different buddy bought it -- and they're also in the business..... and they took it and sold it at BJ.

You surprised at all by the price?
