So I am not the only one that thinks this way lol There is one community a few miles from my home that still has beautiful homes from the 1600's - late 1800's and I think to myself, "self, if I ever hit the lottery for multi-millions I am going to own this road lol. "

And another one on standby with extra coils, coffee, cigars, brandy, and batteries holding an umbrella while you watch your butler digger wearing a tuxedo and white gloves dig up the target with a gold plated lesche! "Right here Jeeves, and mind you dont ding the coin" You could have a string quartet along as well, off to the side of course, so as not to be too distracting, playing Steve Earles "Copperhead Road" or some other appropriate classic. You could have a "showfur" drive you around in a RollsRoyce to hit some totlots, for a change of pace, and one whos job it is to just drive around throwing Walking Libertys and Barber Halfs all over the town! Maybe take a few trips every year to look for gold nuggets in Alaska, or Antarctica, heck, just buy one or the other..when you get tired and want to soak in some warm salty water, jump on the Lear, and go to the Carribean! If any of you ever hit the Lottery, my name is Jeeves, PM me for details!
