Aerial view of the Chance house.

Of course there's a jacuzzi...

Following up an epicurean night with chess and yoga before brunch.

Our kitchen is where the love begins.

At Chance, being in touch with your inner twelve-year-old is not just for men.

Kim searing scallops in truffle oil; plating truffled scallops over grits, served with a half-pear baked with gorgonzola and sage. That meal was good enough to make the book...

Tania was our ladies arm-wrestling champion...

One of many trash-talking games of beach Scrabble.

We'e got guitars, drums, a keyboard... Musicians/singers are highly encouraged.

There are also house kayaks...

...and bicycles.

We even have house hats, sunscreen, towels and chairs. We provide EVERYTHING.

Our maiden effort with the Caja China, a pig-roasting box, on July 4. 1. At least one of us is smiling. 2. Injecting the mojo. 3. Carrying cooked pig over to the "carving station" with Matt. If you're a vegetarian, this might not be the house for you...

Kimpossible is easily distracted on the deck.

Napping on the southern deck under the watchful eye of two barbecues.

Eastern deck overlooking federal preserve and ocean.

The Cajun Shrimp Boil. Poured out, before, and after sunset.

Nighttime dining out on the deck.

We brew our own beer. House members enjoying a pony keg of blackberry wheat ale.

That's one happy double-fister.

John Blesso invented the Bloody Gehry, an update on the traditional bloody mary mix served with deviled eggs, smoked salmon, bacon, soppressata, emmentaler cheese, shrimp, toast and olives. This is America and we deserve to have our entire brunch fitted onto the rim of our glass.

The proper way to prepare lobster: 1. Hypnotize lobsters. 2. Eat lobster, grilled asparagas, grilled corn and sauvignon blanc out on deck.

Late-night swingers.

More night scenes on the deck.
