Wonderful photo. That fireplace and stonework is really impressive.  

He is a very handsome young man, he’s going to do very well in life. Can we talk about your yard please. I’m obsessed with your fireplace surround. You have a beautiful family, can you please tell me a little bit about that fireplace. It’s absolutely gorgeous❤️❤️❤️ 

Ocean girl, Thanks for the comments. We moved into a 90 year old house in 2016, which is ancient in LA. About 80 years ago, the original owner built the grotto into the hillside. It's basically why we bought the place. During covid19, we added the heat lamps, fan and gas fireplace. That lets us see a few friends distantly, outside, through the winter (it does go into 50s at night). The house has been an adventure (i.e. money pit). But, nights in the grotto with friends and family go a long way making it feel worth it. 

Man, Siegels that is a picture for Home and Garden!!!! Handsome handsome son!! Have a safe trip and enjoy!👍 Bought a very old house out here too, like an great old barn, love it but unfortunately a huge money pit too. Can’t even set up WiFi very well as today’s phones have 4 wires ours has three no one knows how to deal with it. 🙃 

beautiful family 

great pic. beautiful family and space.  

Fabulous shot. Have a safe trip. 

So cool though. It's not a money pit if you're maintaining history, right? that's what I tell myself every darn day.  

Great family picture! 🙂 

Beautiful! Have a great trip 

Oh, sweet family 😍 

Enjoy every minute with your boy. You may not know how blessed you are, most of us don't until we lose someone. This photo made me think of my son, also a gentle giant who stood over me and his dad. My son was taken over 11 years ago when he was just 28. I miss him every day.  

Wow! ❤❤❤ your grotto! Safe and fun travels! 

Good looking family pic!! 

I can’t help loving that beautiful wall in the background 

An impressive grotto! 

Wow!!!! It is absolutely stunning! So happy that you got to enjoy it with your family safe and sound by your side. It is the money pits, that are worth renovating and keeping. I love architecture, and this is an absolute find. Enjoy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏💪💪🙏 

Great photo of an impressive find, money pit or not! Enjoy your trip and time with your family! Thanks for sharing. 

Great family photo. Phenotypes are so interesting. My brother had very light, almost blond, curly hair, probably from my paternal grandmother's side, when he was young, while mine was always very dark and my skin easily gets very dark after a few days in the sun. 

Wow he is very tall and handsome you have a great looking family be blessed 😊🙏
