The gates:

Iron, to keep the bad guys out. Opulent, duh, cause you know that's the way I roll.
The house from the water:

Good size, eh? Nice marble and limestone. Terrace good for parties.

Oh, you got me!
It's not really my house or future house or anything at all.
It's the Breakers in Newport RI, the former Vanderbilt estate.
Visited it today with some friends and you know what?
It made me appreciate my small humble abode any day.
In other traveling news I'm off to visit bb tomorrow.
Couldn't be more excited!
I'll let you know how (wonderful) it is...

who spends their summers in cottages like that, eh?
