The manager is totally dippy but it's a fun place to work. The food is good and the drinks are stiff, but the music sounds like a toddler picked it out. If I have to hear Banana Phone one more time I'm filing a complaint.
Until 2006 (including while I was in college), bars / restaurants in SC could not free pour. Every liquor drink was made using airplane bottles.
You would think if a property is advertised as "Ocean view" they would post a picture of the fucking ocean view. Fuck's sake. And don't ask me how I went from hunting a mid west farm house to looking for ocean view property in Maine. It's becoming more and more obvious that I have no idea exactly what I'm looking for, I just hope I know it when I find it.
My family (dad, uncle, and great uncle) owns a lakefront cabin and acreage in Maine. Beautiful lake, amazing summer cabin. We love it. My dad lives in year round in a cabin across the road, which another great uncle willed to him and the same uncle that owns a third of the summer cabin. It’s nice to know I’ve got that in the family for the future, but also stressful because it’s at the point where the next generation (me and my sister, and my cousins) are gonna start being brought in for future ownership. A whole lot of cooks. My sister and I are trying to convince my dad to just buy out our uncle so we have that place, but he’s procrastinating. All of this to say that the ocean is cool, but lakes in Maine are sweet too.
I think this would suit you. Bonus is that it is on an island in the Chesapeake Bay. What you know about crabbing for a living?
The “Ocean view” is found in the attic, on a stepladder with a telescope. “Quaint” means its 300 square feet of floorboards with nails sticking out of them. “Needs TLC” means that crackheads use it for orgies nightly.
That would certainly work, but no ocean view and using google street view that place looks like tourist hell. I've lived in too many tourist spots and want to keep the hell away from them as much as possible. EDIT: Started looking at VA. Look at this shit...it's listed as ocean view. One look at the map would tell you there's no ocean view unless both polar ice caps completely melted, and even then it would be iffy.
Sure, there is some tourism on Tangier. But it is literally only accessable by boat and a very small ferry, so I don't think it's that bad.
I've actually found a few possibilities in VA...and not just ocean view, but actual ocean front under $500K. One I got real excited about was just across from the naval ship yards and has a canon in the yard. A fucking canon! It turned out to be a condo. Bummer.
