Great pictures, Sharon. I love the stone homes. They remind me of the homes in Tuscany.

Hi Sharon,

What gorgeous pix!  Thank you so much for sharing them. It looks like paradise from where I sit...

Too cool to be selling these, huh?

Sandy - I love that style of home as well.

Lanette - thank for the compliment. I love taking my camera with me when I am out.

Richard - thanks for commeneting. Balboa Island is beautiful and it is a great way to start the day with a walk around the island. I love looking at the water and the homes.

Sharon - Thanks for the lovely photos.  I love Newport Beach and Balboa Island.  My son who lived in Newport Beach two years ago took us around that area and showed us all these expensive homes.  I thought where we live in Long Island, NY have expensive homes but you have as expensive homes as we have here except here those houses have big properties from 2 acres on up.

Rosalinda - it is always interesting to see other parts of the country. I love it here too. I would love to see your area as well, especially with the large lots. If you  come and visit again, please look me up.

Sharon

Really nice pictures thanks.  I know that area is out of my price range.

Steve - Crystal Cove has some absolutely beautiful homes with breath taking views. I would love to see photos of Big Bear, it has been a while since I have been there. I have been to Arrowhead a couple of years ago . . . thanks for commenting.

Sharon- wonderful photos. Crystal Cove looks like a beautiful place to live.

Beautiful photos, Sharon!  Makes me think of my time living on the water in Miami--but your coastline is much prettier.  Thanks for showing us a little of your version of paradise.

Donna - thanks for the compliment. Come on out . . . I looked at your blog site and you have awesome pictures. I love the plane - do you fly?
