Hmmmm, crows nest..... that rings a bell, but I think I ran across them on a job when I used to take on new construction. The guy I talked to was the head of Hoffman's music install department. I also know a guy named Royce that has a high end gig, does all the big residential theatre and home automation. For all I know crows nest could be Royce....

thats all I know. Are you from around here... If you now of crows nest, you must have at least rolled through here.

I'm from WA state originally (SW WA). Went to college in Seattle, and somehow ended up down here in Nashville. :lol:

I know of them because we've done subcontract work for them in the past, where I work.

We moved away from seattle a few years ago. pretty, but every one is into new house, new car....etc. you have to make a lot of dough to keep up. Forget it. we bailed.

I know what you mean.

For the house I have here, it would probably cost me 400k or more in Seattle. :shock: :?

I had 12 employees, shop, 4 vans, secratary, bla, bla, bla, and would bill out a small chunk O' change every month. Truly was not worth it. Now its just me.

BTW, I worked for the shop that did all the low volt at Bill Gates lake washington residence, un-be-leavable. I also wired bill gates head attourneys house when on my own. both jobs were nightmares. didnt make me a better person or anything like that. You just get a look at how the "other half" ( those with loads of cash) live. man, all those micro soft millionairs that I ran acrossed were almost miserable. I thought, "man if this is how you act when money falls out of the sky, I dont need to pursue making as much as I can anymore."

Best choice ever! Keep it simple
